Raising funds to pay for bills and afford physical therapy and a neurologist for concussion symptoms lasting over 2 months.
I am a 23-year-old female who has overcome the struggles of employment, applying for 58 jobs (yes, that’s the real number) over the past 3 months after being fired for texting my manager that I was sick due to lack of voice instead of calling them (because I didn’t have a voice to call).
After being extremely sick (probably COVID) for over 2 weeks and unemployed, I used all my emergency savings to stay afloat paying for groceries, rent, etc. Four months later, I’ve suffered a concussion that has disallowed me from returning to work. Headaches, insomnia, fatigue, inability to regulate emotions, confusion, memory loss, dizziness—the whole package.
Along with some other events that have deeply affected my life, I am starting this fundraiser as a way to fund the vertigo/concussion PT that I need as well as advanced yet costly solutions to get rid of my concussion symptoms so I can go back to work.
