Help Joy-Moon Walk Again 💖

Hi, my name is Joy-Moon, and I’m reaching out with a heart full of hope and a little bit of fear. Not long ago, my life completely changed overnight. I had a spinal stroke while I was sleeping, and I woke up paralyzed from the waist down. I can’t feel or properly use my feet, legs, or waist, and walking is no longer something I can do on my own.

Before this happened, I was really looking forward to hosting and entertaining again — something that truly brings me joy. I love seeing people laugh, smile, and feel at home in my space. Entertaining is a big part of who I am, and I was so excited to get back to it. But now, everything has been put on pause while I focus on one very important goal: learning how to walk again.

Right now, I am in a very challenging season of my life. I am unable to work and will need to stay home with the help of a home nurse while I go through intensive physical therapy to regain as much mobility as possible. On top of the emotional and physical stress, there are heavy financial burdens:


  • Rent and housing expenses as I adjust to this new reality

  • Medical costs and physical therapy sessions to help me walk again

  • Basic living and accessibility needs while I am unable to work


I created this GoFundMe to ask, from the bottom of my heart, for support during this time of transition and healing. Your help will go directly toward:


  • Rent and housing stability so I don’t lose my home while I recover

  • Physical therapy (PT) and treatments that give me a real chance to walk again

  • Home care and daily living needs while I adjust to my new limitations


My dream is simple but powerful: to get back on my feet, return to what I love, and be able to entertain, host, and bring people together again. I miss feeling like myself. I miss moving around freely, decorating, welcoming people in, hearing laughter fill the room, and doing the things that once felt so normal.

Any amount you can give will make a difference. Even if you’re unable to donate, simply sharing my GoFundMe with others helps more than you know.

You can support me here:

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading my story, for caring, and for standing with me during this difficult time. I am holding onto hope that with your support, time, and hard work in physical therapy, I’ll be able to walk again, get back to hosting, and return to the life and joy I miss so deeply.

With much love and gratitude,
Joy-Moon 💕

Not a problem. If you need a tune up/maintenance, let me know. I have worked on a few ladies here and can provide references. Keep it 100% professional.

Similar thing happened to me back in 2018 . I jumped off a 15 ft wall and broke my entire foot right off my leg. Took a year and a half to recover back to normal. Horrible thing to go through I'm glad youre ok. I know how that is. Man it sucked. I ended up losing my place in Costa mesa and everything but later on got a beautiful place in Irvine so. Sometimes we fall but you gotta get back up! So happy you're healed up! High five!
