For awhile now, they have been noticing that my multiple sclerosis has been progressing a lot quicker than usual. I was just diagnosed with Early Onset Parkinson’s disease today, alongside multiple sclerosis. My body will continue to break down over time.
My number one dream is to be able to lead as ‘normal’ of a life as possible. My medication that I need for it called Levodopa isn’t covered by my Ontario drug plan currently. It’s about $725 for a months supply. My doctor has submitted the forms for special consideration to have it covered, but it may take 3 to 4 weeks to get a response.
I know this isn’t my first donation post, I’ve had quite a few but I’m really struggling. Please help me get my life saving medication if possible.
I work at a daycare with infants.
One of our baby girls is fat, in the 99th percentile for her age. She is super cute and sweet. Lately, she has been sick with various breathing issues, so she has been reluctant to take her bottles. Normally, she’ll take 4 ounces of formula at lunch and 8 ounces in the afternoon. Today, I was lucky to get to her take 5 all day.
There was a substitute covering a lunch break in my classroom today. We emphasized to her that we need to keep trying to get the baby to drink her bottle until she finished it. She said, “Why are you guys so worried about taking her bottle?”
My coworker replied, “That’s where all her nutrients are. She needs the nutrients and the water.”
To which the substitute replied, “But she’s so fat. She doesn’t need it.”
Thin privilege is a small, pretty baby getting better childcare because the caretaker doesn’t think she’s too fat to be allowed to eat.
Arinaitwe Gerald, an Batwa indigenous organizer I talk to regularly who lives in southwestern Uganda, is currently having trouble providing for orphaned children he and his wife have taken in in addition to their own children after their mother passed away a bit over a month ago.
One of the children, a 12 year old girl named Immaculate, is in serious pain due to having a cyst caused by goiter. She had been recommended for surgery all the way back in October, but because $700 is nowhere near an amount her late mother or Gerald and his wife can afford, she has still not gotten the treatment she needs and they are even having difficulty getting the $85 needed for an injection that would potentially help decrease the pain and size of the cyst temporarily.
but my parents are homophobic and recently kicked me out of their home. I’m a full time college student and will be renting a place for winter break in my college town. Since they kicked me out I have no vehicle and only the funds I’ve saved the past year. I have an emotional support cat (named Beef) and am on anxiety meds that have made a previously debilitating mood disorder stable.
I’m getting a job but I’d really like some help staying afloat this winter if you are willing to share this post or donate even as little as a dollar to my gofundme.
I am an artist and will also be taking commissions during this time (please check my Instagram, Autumnnotgrace, if you are interested in that!! If nothing else I love to interact with people there!)
I also sell shirts on Redbubble and Threadless (I am also Autumnnotgrace there)
My gofundme link is right here.

If you have nothing to give, reblogs are very appreciated!!
Thanks so much for reading through this! Have a happy winter, I know I’ll be doing my best to!
I interrupt your daily schedule of high-quality imagery and present to you trash.
I urge some of y'all to check out some of the original soundtrack themes of Fighting is Magic from 2011-12. because those songs, especially Applejack's and Twilight's themes imo, were absolute bona-fide bops and i hope for them not to be forgotten, mlp fan or no.
hi my name is tettelle and i have a whopping 10.75 hours of work for the entire month as of 7/29. im quickly running out of money and instead of making a donation post i’d like to do animation commissions. i can do simple less than ten frame stuff like blinking and more complex things. the price honestly will depend on what you want, sorry i can’t have a set price but i’ll try to give you a deal.
please help me by at least reblogging tysm!! <3
