Asthma Meds


I am in desperate need of assistance in obtaining a drug crucial for treating my asthma which, in their infinite wisdom, my new drug plan refuses to cover. While my doctor is negotiating with them, I am close to running out and facing real difficulty in breathing. Advair is the only drug that adequately treats my condition…I’ve tried them all. Until this mess gets sorted, any and all help is greatly appreciated. You are my last resort. I hope you are not as annyed with me as I am embarrassed at having to ask for help once again.

Fractured Fairy Tales


UPDATE: Results of x-ray at 8 weeks post fracture: “Comminuted fracture of the proximal right humerus at the level of the greater tuberosity has partially visible fracture lines and minimal areas of callus formation.” This is not good news.

My recent accident left me with not only a broken arm but a broken spirit and bank account. I was forced to miss two deadlines for crochet projects, leaving a $1500+ hole in the budget. For obvious reasons, my massage business is dormant. The rent and utilities are paid, as well as most of the medical bills, but little else. I just need to get through these months while I regroup. The arm is not healing as well as expected; I may be facing surgery soon. It is humbling to, once again. come with hat in hand. But, that is where I am. Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated. The link below will take you to my GoFundMe page.

Give Until It Hurts


With the help of so many, I have reached my $2,000 goal as a roadie for this year’s event. But, I’m optimistic. I have raised my goal to $2.500. Surely that isn’t too much to ask for such a worthy cause.
 
I’m preparing for a monumental journey and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s not going to be easy, but it’s likely to be one of the most rewarding weeks I will experience in my life. And I need your help to make it possible.
 
June 3rd – June 9th I will be traveling in support of over 2,000 riders who will bike 545 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles to support the life-saving services offered by San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the Los Angeles LGBT Center, in the fight to end HIV/AIDS.
 
While I am not able to complete the journey on a bike, I have volunteered as a Roadie, specifically as a massage therapist for the participants. I’ve committed my time to make sure that I’m ready, but I have set a personal goal to raise $2,500.00. For that, I’m asking you to support me by donating as generously as you possibly can. To the people who rely on these services to survive, every dollar counts. And every dollar brings me closer to being able to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime experience. On the Wednesday of the week of the ride, I will celebrate my 68th birthday. As a gift to me, help me to help others with a generous donation.
 
Thank you for making this event possible for me. Let’s make a difference together!
