Hi. My name is Leslie. Most of you know me as the mun behind Steve Rogers (flewintotheice) and most of you know everything I’ve been going through since before Christmas last year. After several months of chemo and radiation, I was finally able to have the needed surgery earlier this month. Recently, I turned in paperwork and applications to get on state medical aid and social security disability. However, I’ve been told both of these could take up to 10 weeks or even longer, depending on all the government problems right now. At the moment, I am trying to raise a total of $3500 in order to make sure my medical expenses are covered through the end of the year. This is money that I will be using for my new prescriptions and to cover my upcoming doctor’s appointments and blood work as well. At the moment, I am trying to find a job but most people see me in an interview, find out I’ve been sick, and rarely want to hire anyone in my condition.
There are two ways you can help me. I have a gofundme page which you can access here: My Fundraiser . As of today, you guys have helped me raise $861 and I am so very grateful for that.
I also have an Etsy store which you can access here: My Etsy Store . You will find homemade goods and quilting/sewing material. My daughter is in the process of making some jewelry to add to my page as well as some small paintings, too. I will also be adding framed photographs I’ve taken as well.
If you can’t help financially, I hope you will at least take the time to reblog this and get the word out for me. I appreciate you all so much.
My goal at the moment is to have a total of $2000 raised by the end of the month. Given that I’ve already raised $861, that means I need to raise the remaining $1139 in the next 15 days. This will be in time for a scan that I need as well as my prescriptions which I was due to pick up yesterday but couldn’t.
Again, as always, thank you for everything… your help and your thoughts.
Thanks to my wonderful Izzie, there is also a paypal account that funds can be donated to in case anyone has an easier time doing os that way. The associated email is: [email protected]
Things have begun to get very desperate for me at this time. I’m in need of another biopsy. I’ve lost my regular internet capabilities and might soon lose my phone as well. At the moment, we are behind on the house payment and my dad is having to call in to work because we do not have the money for gas for his car. I also don’t have the money to ride the bus to my remaining appointments this week which include the social security office as I’m trying to get disability benefits and the health and human services office where i’m trying to get medical and other help.
I’m asking for help as quickly as possible at this point. The money already raised has been put to the most recent medical bill which arrived on Monday. At the moment, I don’t have any of the medications I’m supposed to be taking which means I am in a significant amount of pain almost 24/7.
Please, if you can help, either by donating or making a purchase through my Etsy account, please do so soon. You can donate through the fundraiser link or by paypal through the email address given by my friend Izzie as a way of helping: [email protected]
If you can’t donate at this time, then please, please, please keep reblogging this so that someone else can possibly help. If you’ve already donated, please know that I appreciate your help and support.
