Health and Surgical Update

Everyday has been such a battle, I havnt been sleeping right and have been on a messed up reversed schedule for 2 months  now because I cannot wear my CPAP which was helping for a few weeks to get me some real resortive sleep, but it was a struggle to wear even the lightest mask because just the extra weight in front of head with my severe craniocervical instability was making my head slide and my neck so much worse. So I had to give up the CPAP and now I'm not "sleeping" and when I am "sleeping" it's not restful and it's during the daytime.

I feel like a energy vampire drains me every night and therfore I'm compeltly non functional during daytime hours. Especially to plan and find out what I need to for my upcoming surguires. My brain and body feel like they are at the highest degree of completly not functioning and it all comes down to this darn skull instabilty.

I need to make this surgery happen and unfortunately this means I need to ask for your help again. And it's actually two surguries again, but this time we know ahead of time.
The first surgery will be a tethered cord revision on April 12th. Which should help with many symptoms including allowing me to wear my neck collar for support and protection. Then on May 11th I'll have my craniocervical fusion. I cannot wear the collar to support my unstable skull right now cause it's triggering a worsening and intolerable degree of my tethered cord symptoms.
These two operations are in Oceanside, NY and mom and I are desperately trying to figure out how to make this trip possible and where we can stay for April & May out there that has a kitchen, no stairs and hopefully 2 beds within hopefully 30min of the hosptiol/ drs office.

I've made calls and checked the Web and air bnb and have even called some relators trying to  find a place suitable for my post surgical needs, and it is really difficult and rather expensive. So much more than I thought and we'll beyond anything I have.

It is very hard for me to ask for this help again after so many of you helped me with my surgeries last time.  I hate to do this but I need your help again. Without it i wont be able to afford to travel back east and stay out there to have these much needed operations. I just got my fundraiser page up and posted. Click Link 2 Spinal Surgeries to go: YouCaring Fundraiser Page If your able to help that would be incredible. If you can just pass on my link then that would be amazing too.

Thank you for reading my update and for all your support. I never could have made it this far without all of you amazing folks who helped donate last time and I am hoping that maybe you'd be willing to help me out again.
