🌸 I wanted to mention that PayPal has updated their platform and changed a few things so now we can’t message or react with a "heart" if someone sends a gift or a tip. I just wanted to mention it because I usually try to always acknowledge it on platforms that let me & I suddenly can't there so I felt like it appeared that I was being rude 🙈 Thank you so much for helping us!

Please take a second to share our GoFundMe link. Every share brings us closer to stability. Thank you for standing with us! 💜🐾

Thank you all for being here, Pharaby & I appreciate each and every one of you!

Pharaby and I painted a hopeful scene of beautiful blue skies and cacti. Pharaby painted the clouds using acrylic and I painted the cactus using watercolor. I love the phrase "what's the best that could happen" , I try to think about that a lot. It is important to stay hopeful, especially now, for me anyway. I hope seeing this helps you remember to stay hopeful too!

About This Fundraiser

Every purchase of this t-shirt or donation directly supports permanent housing stability, ongoing medical needs, and daily care for me and my service dog, Pharaby.
Why Baseline Stability Matters: Living with severe dysautonomia, MCS, CPTSD, and daily non-epileptic seizures (PNES) means my nervous system is in a constant state of involuntary physical shutdown. Without traditional income or a family safety net, stability and housing insecurity keeps my body locked in fight or flight, making these physical episodes far worse.

Severe neurological damage isn't something you just "recover" from on a standard timeline. The goal isn't a quick fix, it's long term stability and safety to keep my condition from deteriorating and to give Pharaby and me a secure place to live.

Thank you for helping us build a safe, lasting foundation!
