Hey everyone, I hope we’re all holding up okay and staying strong and focused on the struggle we’re all facing collectively! I know it’s a terrible time for so many people, for our brothers and sisters and comrades in west Asia (Palestine, Lebanon, etc) and the battle we face in the belly of the beast. I know we’re all doing the best we can and I hate to ask for more assistance, but my wife Kat has recently (last night) broken her prescription glasses and has terrmible eyes - with no alternatives like contacts or the like. Everywhere I’ve looked and called that’s close or viable it could between $70-$200 and her condition can seriously degrade without them so I really don’t want her to be blind for lack of a better term for too long.. she’s also experience a lot of problems with her teeth and need to see a doctor to get a referral for a dentist if possible asap, as well as there being a possibility of a previous medical condition involving polyps. I’m supposed to be having surgery soon and would REALLY like to get her at least on track to being taken care of also and it’s going to involve a lot of transportation and amongst a myriad of other things im sure but I couldn’t estimate the cost entirely.. we’re also handling all of this from a motel room thanks to the Amazing kindness of you all that’s keeping us from being out on the street, and in both my condition (I have a leg full of metal that’s destroyed and infected and I can’t walk most of the time) and hers it would most likely result in death for us both. And not to keep adding on to the list, we live in an area that gets very cold in the winter as it is already and we lack warm clothing from boots, warm jackets, gloves, hats, etc. if anyone is in a position to help with any of this, as always, we seriously and genuinely appreciate all of your solidarity and kindness. We’re doing everything we can to seek help elsewhere but it’s extremely difficult to get around due to my mobility issues. I can’t thank everyone enough. Really. From my wife and I both. I do not like using our ethnicities to elicit sympathy, but we are both of mixed race as I am Kurdish, Palestinian, Japanese and a European mix and my wife is of Pakistani and Guyanese descent and we have lost the entirety of our families over the last few years so we are without any support system whatsoever aside from the kindness of strangers and our comrades.

Cash app ~ $goldenratio1123 PayPal ~ @ iwannadaisuki Can pm if having any trouble finding those or if Venmo and Zelle are needed.. thank you, again, and I’m sorry to ask for assistance at a time where everyone is struggling. Solidarity forever ❤️

I hate to give advice on here, but have you looked at online glasses solutions? It sounds like she may need more specific care that only a local optometrist could provide, but if you can just take your prescription and go anywhere, there are a lot of online glasses places where they could be as little as $50. The only reason I mention it is because there are too many people in my life that have been shocked by online glasses places.

A friend of ours suggested the same too but it’s a little more like you said, and even if it wasn’t we hate having things sent here besides like food because we don’t trust the establishment itself or the other people that stay here I guess bc the few times we have had things sent here, they vanish before we ever get them. We’re at a really not so good motel in a shitty part of the outside of the city im not sure how to explain it, but in short just not a very good area with a lot of desperate and dangerous individuals that come and go out of this motel if that makes sense sadly (not that im passing judgement whatsoever).
