Hi, my name is Blakelee and I’m starting this fundraiser for my best friend, Amy. She’s one of the strongest women I know, but right now, she needs our help. Amy has been battling rheumatoid arthritis for years and recently underwent hip replacement surgery. Now, just months later, she’s facing another major operation — a full knee replacement scheduled for April.

Despite her pain and limited mobility, Amy continues to push through for her children. But with another surgery approaching, she’ll be unable to work during recovery, and the stress of keeping up with bills and putting food on the table is overwhelming. I’m raising funds to help cover her living expenses, food, and basic needs before and after surgery so she can focus on healing without added worry.

Amy has always been the one to show up for others. Now, it’s our turn to show up for her. Every little bit helps, and your kindness will make a huge difference in her life and her kids’ lives during this tough time. Thank you so much for your support.
