Last post got long

We've been struggling to get our basic needs covered, we have no water, our daughter got her hair mutilated by her grandpa, we had to flee to a hotel 2 times during last month because he's been a danger for us, i lost my healthcare and im still in the paperwork to get it back and a couple days ago our trans daughter started peeing blood, is in pain and has shown signs of infection.

She already got checked by a Dr but he recommended an urologist very urgently. She already underwent surgery last year, there is a chance it was badly done or a new issue.

So, can we get help for her? Her birthday will be soon

We need $125 for the appointment with a trans friendly urologist, then we will have a diagnosis.

We were able to pay rent and fill our water tank, we hope the shortage ends and we don't have to get bottled water daily. We'll keep you posted.

I've been offering spanish conversation classes online, just taking time off until I can make sure my father-in-law won't sabotage those with his shouting.

A friend and mutual is offering commissions to help us if you're interested.

Also check our throne, we have some urgent lists of needs for our chronic pain/illnesses if someone can help us with that too.

Finally got the prescriptions scanned, forgot the 3rd one with the labs but this should be better than nothing, we debated a lot on how much information should be censored so i hope you understand we covered all we thought could put our daughter in danger.

We could agree on sharing the uncensored one through dm´s but only to trusted mutuals so they can corroborate its legit, we need to get her the surgery as urgently as possible cause the pain from the balanitis is hindering her ability to go to the bathroom or even just exist.

of course they are in spanish tho, we voted against translating them for accuracy´s sake.

The total cost of surgery through the only trans friendly clinic we could find goes over $52,000 pesos, which is over $3,100 usd, not even taking into account if she needs to stay overnight under their care.

She wouldn't have to go through another surgery if the previous dr had identified the symptoms better, we cant put her through another transphobic clinic, she was miserable and shouldn´t have gone through all that.

If it helps at all it's going to be her birthday on July 14, it would be great if she didn't have to be in pain and going to the bathroom meant a crying session and a constant infection.

We also had hoped the phones would have arrived by now but we got an email saying there was a problem but we hope to get a positive reply by july 11th, we´ll keep you posted.

so yeah, we need so much help not even considering that grandpa is still a danger, we will need food by saturday and i hurt myself handwashing the clothes we needed most urgently.

help please

Happy birthday, Assata Shakur! (July 16, 1947)

An icon of anti-imperialist struggle, Assata Skakur was born in New York City and became aware at a young age of the prejudice and discrimination faced by Black people in the United States. She became a student activist in the 1960s, and soon learned that the forces of bourgeois law enforcement would not tolerate dissent from the status quo. Traveling to Oakland, she linked up with the Black Panther Party, helping organize community programs and protests. Dissatisfied with the direction of the BPP, she joined the Black Liberation Army, a more militant organization modeled after the Viet Cong and other armies of national liberation. Shakur and the BLA were quickly labeled terrorists, and she was imprisoned for several years for her activities. However, Shakur's comrades freed her from prison, and she fled into political exile in Cuba, where she remains today. She has published several writings including her autobiography Assata, which cover a variety of topics ranging from race to revolution.
