i sleep on the floor ive been trying to play it off as i have a platform level bed but i sleep on the damn floor my bed had to be thrown out i dont have a bed frame or matress i guess ill be sleeping propped up on the living room right?

we have animals! they like to run jump and crawl all over well this is by far the worst news i could have been given today

my friend still has his recliner he’d be willing to let me use BUT we dont know anyone with a truck nor do i have money to rent a little uhaul pickup truck my surgery is tomorrow and im finding out right now

if yall wanna help me somehow I’d really appreciate it maybe get the money to rent the truck? please donate if you can

This kid is in surgery TODAY (Oct 11th). I can’t do anything but reblog, but I can at least do that. Pass this around – it costs you nothing, and it might reach people who CAN help.
