♿️💜 Help Me Regain Some Independence Hi everyone! I’m raising money for mobility equipment, a stair lift, and a specialized treatment in Florida that could make a meaningful difference in my life. Living with severe Long COVID, ME/CFS, POTS, dysautonomia, hEDS, and other chronic conditions has left me mostly bedbound and dependent on others. Sitting or standing can cause tachycardia, faintness, weakness, and debilitating crashes. I’m raising funds for: 🏠 A compact electric wheelchair for inside my home so I can move through my small rooms and hallways more safely. 🌳 A more rugged electric wheelchair for outdoors so I can occasionally enjoy fresh air, spend time with my family, and take my dog to the park when my body allows. 🏡 A stair lift to help me safely access the different levels of my home without risking falls or severe symptom crashes. 🩺 A specialized treatment in Florida, expected to cost approximately $20,000 for the treatment alone. This amount does not include travel, lodging, meals, transportation, or other expenses related to traveling to and staying in Florida for treatment. I’m hopeful it may help improve my health and quality of life. My current wheelchair is worn out, and the power wheelchair I have is too large for my home. I’m trying to sell it and put the money toward equipment that better fits my needs. I’m not expecting these things to cure me or restore my old life. I’m simply hoping they can help me reclaim small pieces of independence—leaving my bedroom, moving around my home, spending time with loved ones, and occasionally enjoying the outdoors. More than anything, I want to improve my quality of life for the time I have. I want to be able to experience whatever moments my body allows and try to bring some joy into the days when I’m well enough to participate. Even small things—laughing with my family, spending time with my dog, enjoying fresh air, or being present for meaningful moments—would mean so much to me. If you’re able to donate, I would be incredibly grateful. If not, sharing my fundraiser helps more than you know. I’m not trying to push beyond my limits. I’m trying to make the small amount of life I can participate in safer, more accessible, and more meaningful—and to make room for as much joy as my body will allow. 💜 Thank you for your kindness and support. With love and gratitude, Kelsey 💜 🔗in comments
