About Travel Maker
Travel is a passion of mine, which is why I started this blog. In time, I hope to turn it into something bigger. I live with multiple disabilities and chronic diseases that stem from a childhood cancer. I live with numerous comorbidities, including kidney failure, liver disease, endocrine issues, gout, avascular necrosis which has caused numerous subsequent structural issues, and now, scoliosis. I've since had another 2 cancers and my mobility condition continues to deteriorate. My full time job is managing my medical affairs. Due to my health issues, I have been unable to get a job, and I have been searching for one for over 20 years. I face discrimination when I try, then I get rejected because I don't have enough experience. I am also the victim of domestic violence at home. A few years ago, in a desperate attempt to leave the house I live in and to obtain financial independence, I fell victim to financial fraud that drained my savings, further damaging my independence. I have never asked for a hand out, and I only ask for help when I really need it. If you can, please take two minutes donate to my fundraiser, or if you can't, please share the link widely: https://gofund.me/c6c83a61e Thank you.
