Bad news. My left ankle foot brace orthotics funding request was denied today. I'm now paying out of pocket for it. It costs $2600. I can pay it but will then be short for 2 utility bills balances owing & some medications costs for April. I picked up a wedding photography side gig for May so will be OK for upcoming months.

I need donations to help pay for:

- partial hydro bill due April 4th, I paid most of balance with $310 owing. We got a disconnection notice letter today & they gave us until Friday.
- $244.45 for Mom's insulin & needles, needed by April 10, when she runs out.
- $142.76 for balance owing on internet bill

Total needed to be raised asap is $697.21.

If you can help me out at all, please send any amount you can via e-transfer ( I can DM email ) or my PayPal or Kofi (link in bio). Please boost, if you're unable to donate. Thank you 🙏

@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party Do you need a SPECIFIC brace, or is it a standard off-the-shelf item? Here for example is a standard Swedish AFO from Grayline Medical for $77:

@zakalwe I need a customized brace due to my past multiple surgeries to correct polio rollover foot. I am unable to use store bought braces.

@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party Ah. Sorry to hear that. ​:blobcatverysad:​ It was worth asking.

@zakalwe It would be easier/cheaper if I didn't require a custom one.
