Using A Website To Raise Funds.

[Michael 0]

Has anyone ever used a personal website or one of the crowd funding websites to raise the funds to get the lap band surgery done? I don't have insurance or the money saved to get the surgery due to being underemployed and part time employed. Since I'm male, without children, and under 65, I don't qualify for any government assistance.

I've set up a funding website at www.gofundme.com/saving-Michael. If anyone has ever done this, I could really use some tips on how to get more donations.

There some times contests with surgeons, for a free surgery- also in TX there is some kinda group also that people have tried to get surgery money. Medicaid does pay depending on state etc. google google google and youtube.
