gorey: MUTUAL AID REQUEST: Help Dean stay afloat! Image descriptions will be after a cut at the end of the post. Background: My friend Dean is a 34-year-old disabled Black man from Washington, DC. He was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in 2019. He has been struggling with chronic food insecurity and the malnutrition has led to further issues with his bones, blood pressure, and bladder. He currently has stable housing but spent much of 2020 housing insecure. In April 2020 he was in a car accident that left him with broken ribs and severe back injury (the last picture in this post is from April 2020, of him in the stretcher right after the accident). He went on disability benefits after the accident. In October 2020 he came down with COVID-19 and spent 3 weeks in hospital, but fortunately made a full recovery. The situation: Dean’s benefits expired in January and the process of reinstating them will take 3 to 6 months. That means Dean has zero income right now. He also doesn’t have health insurance coverage. Right now his goal is to raise $900 for his living expenses while his benefits are paused. Donations will go to rent/utilities, medical bills and medication costs (including metformin (fourth pic) and insulin for his diabetes), and the fresh food Dean needs for his health to stabilize. He’s had to go days without eating at times which is very dangerous for him. Where to donate: P*yp*l: deanphanor1986@gmail.com V*nmo: @ Dean-Phanor C*sh*pp: $topsecret1986 - not preferred right now because there’s been some issues with the account but I wanted to list it because that should be resolved soon. V*nmo and P*yp*l are both good options. Dean’s birthday is coming up on March 9th! Please spread this post even if you can’t donate yourself, last week I made a smaller post for Dean to cover an individual medication cost and we got an amazing response, please keep that energy up and help my friend survive! If you have any questions feel free to DM me. IDs under cut: Keep reading -- source link
