moringottos:

hey guys we need your help

so here’s what’s been going on: last month, Bird – @thulimo – was hospitalized briefly and we learned that she has a major tumor on her ovary and will need a complete hysterectomy in the (very near) future, as well as some internal bleeding. the latter has been taken care of, the former still needs ongoing care.

if you’re following me from the Tolkien or TES fandoms then you’re probably well acquainted with her wonderful art.

our insurance company is dragging it’s feet now because they’ve paid out over $20,000 so far and are reluctant to do anything else for us, even authorizing specialist visits and referrals, until we pay the remaining balance. the remaining balance comes to $2800. that’s just so far.

I simply do not have that kind of money. my paycheck pays for 90% of living expenses and in april I was involved in an accident at work where I was pinned between the inside of a mortuary transport van and several hundred pounds of decedent and casket, causing a very serious back injury (and requires a surgery of it’s own, which will put me out of work – obviously I am putting this off as long as I can). in spite of that. I’m at work every day the funeral home is open. I’m working 70-80 hours a week. simply put, the FH is not open enough for me to get any more hours, and I’m pushing myself past my breaking point as it is. I would need to save back from my paycheck for over a year to come up with the money to pay it off between student debts and the cost of being alive in this economy. Bird doesn’t have a year to wait for continued care.

I hate making this post. I hate asking for help like this because we all have our own problems, but I’m desperate. below is a screenshot of the balances due (with personal/identifying information blacked out) just to show that I’m serious and that I’m not just pulling a figure out of thin air:

I don’t even like to think about where we’d be right now without an ACA healthcare plan, or without insurance at all, it honest to god makes me break out in stress hives. I’ve already been pacing around my office so much today that I’m driving my coworkers insane.

getting to the point: i’m opening fic commissions at $1 per 100 words. you can send me a message here on tumblr to discuss details. I will write nsfw even, anything goes.

I’m also offering 10 card tarot readings for $10.

I have a ko-fi page, and $3 will get you a 300 word ficlet of your choice (and obviously a higher donation will get you a higher word count)

and if none of these appeal but you still want to help you can imagine i’m not going to say no, and I have a paypal.me account

and if you can’t donate at all but still want to help, reblogs and signal boosts are so appreciated. thank you guys so much for even reading this far. <3333
