Update on my fixed dentures fundraising.
Yesterday, $59.22 CDN from 2 mutual aid supporters came in.

$928.31 CDN in donated funds received as of 8:16am on June 7th.
$2,330−$928.31= $1,401.69
Total still needed: $1,401.69

If you can donate anything at all to help me pay for fixed dentures, please use my PayPal or e-transfer or Kofi:

*Kofi charges almost $5 fee for every $50 donation - they transfer funds over to PayPal*

Please boost, if you're unable to #donate to my fixed dentures #fundraiser. Thank you for any & all assistance 🙏

I'll be documenting the whole process of getting fixed dentures, afterwards, so folks can see what they helped to fund.

Sorry, I crashed out after dinner & doing my therapy homework yesterday & didn't wake up until 5am. I was super tired after a long & hard day. Slept very well 👍

Updating on my fixed dentures fundraising now.
$687.75 CDN in donated funds received as of 7:45am on June 4th.
I screwed up on the math earlier, sorry. I have recalculated with more accuracy.
$2,330−$687.75 = 1,642.25.
Total still needed: $1,642.25

I'm back from the denturist. He said my gums are getting damaged by the current immediate dentures & obtaining fixed ones would help with that & with eating more foods. The fixed dentures aren't as expensive as immediates were but they are still costly & not covered by my pharmacare. I am a disabled death doula/death care aide, working on independent contracts basis & have no additional health insurance coverage. I was slowly saving up for fixed dentures but had to use the $260 saved for unexpected medical costs for me & Mom's recent downturns in health last month.

These are the costs I was quoted today, for getting full set of fixed dentures made with the related costs that I'm #fundraising for:

X-rays, casting & full fixed dentures set - $1650
4 relines for any adjustments needed after - $680
$331.55 CDN in donated funds received as of 5:40pm on June 2nd.
Total still needed: $1,998.45

#DareToAsk

This may be a long shot... But maybe someone on the Fedi knows...

I have a treadmill. The tread needed adjusting. I checked the booklet. I checked the video. I did as was told. And... I messed up somehow... :parrot_sad:

If I want someone to repair it for me, they want €150. I don't have that money! Not even a small part of it. All my money goes to Arwen these days...

Is there anyone on Fedi that has experience with treadmills? That can easily talk me though this, in plain and simple words, so that I could maybe fix this myself (with their help)...

I am not technical. And this made me very insecure. But I want to fix this without needing to sell a kidney to be able to afford the costs...

If anyone would be able to talk me through it.... I can give more details on make and model then...

Please boost :boosts_ok_gay: so that, hopefully, this message will reach a handy person that is willing and able to help me with this....

Thanks in advance!

I'm deathly allergic to cats, and my partner is ignoring that and adopting a cat.

I was told to figure my own shit out, so I made a gfm for aid in protecting myself until I am able to move out.

Update: Epipens obtained, as well as 1 of 2 air purifiers! Thank you all SO much!

Update 2: Almost there, need a lil bit more for meds!

Anything helps, and anything extra will go towards my moving out fund.

#HelpNeeded! #Gardening

My #CherryLaurel on the terrace is turning yellow again, even though it's received several fertilizers 1), has enough water, and the warmer days are still ahead of us.

As in previous years, my big question is: more or less fertilizer?!?
Is there any way to tell?

1) I have been using alternatingly blue fertilizer and guano and add my green tea and coffee residue several times a week.
