Living with severe spinal disease has taken away something I never imagined losing — my ability to move safely, work, and care for myself. The damage to my Cervical and lumbar spine causes crippling pain that radiates through my lower back, into my buttocks, down my legs, and all the way to my heels. Some days, the pain is so intense that standing or walking feels nearly impossible.On top of this, I suffer from neuropathy that brings burning, numbness, and weakness to my legs and feet. My cervical sends the pain into my shoulders , neck and arms These symptoms make even the simplest tasks dangerous and exhausting. Because of the condition of my spine, I am no longer physically able to work or support myself the way I once did.I never imagined being in a position where I would need to ask for help. But the truth is, I cannot face this alone. Medical care, treatments, daily necessities, and basic living expenses have become overwhelming. Every day is a battle — not just against pain, but against the fear of losing stability, housing, and access to the care I need to survive.Your support, no matter the amount, would help me stay afloat during this difficult time. It would help me afford essential medical appointments, medications, transportation, and the basic needs that allow me to live with dignity while I fight for my health.If you are unable to donate, sharing this page means more than you know.
