After 38 Years of Crafting Beauty, I'm Fighting to Stand Straight Again

For 38 years, I've poured my heart into hand-crafting wooden roses each bouquet takes me eight hours to make. Now I'm selling them through excruciating pain, trying to raise money for back surgery I desperately need.

My L1 and S5 discs are damaged, and the pain is unbearable. But I'm not asking for a handout I'm working as hard as I can despite it all. I just want to get the rods, plates, and cage I need so I can stand straight, walk without agony, and open a small shop to keep doing what I love.

Every donation brings me closer to that surgery and a chance at dignity again. If my story touches you, please help me get there. Share this with anyone who might care I can't face this alone.

Thank you for seeing me and giving me hope to keep going.
