Hello everyone, My name is Kristen Slade, and I’m currently being seen at the Cleveland Clinic in Weston, FL for an emergency medical illness. This has been a frightening and overwhelming time, both physically and financially. Due to my condition, I’ve been unable to work since September 11, 2025, and have had no source of income since then. While I focus on treatment and recovery, I’m struggling to cover my basic living expenses—especially groceries, food, and day-to-day necessities. I’ve always tried to take care of myself and others, but right now I need a little help to get through this tough time. Any support—no matter how small—will go directly toward helping me stay nourished and stable while I continue receiving medical care. If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing this post or keeping me in your thoughts and prayers means just as much. Thank you all for your kindness, generosity, and compassion. It’s not easy to ask for help, but I’m deeply grateful for every bit of support during this difficult chapter. With heartfelt thanks, Kristen Slade, David Wallace, and Family
