Aid Mandy Giampietro's Healing Journey After Severe Injuries
Dear friends, family, and compassionate souls,
I am reaching out to share a deeply personal and challenging experience that has significantly impacted my life. Recently, I was the victim of a pit bull attack that has left me with severe injuries, mounting medical bills and emotional distress.
On June 17th, I was attacked by a pit bull while visiting a friend. The attack was unexpected, and resulted in multiple lacerations, fractures, two intense surgeries and four weeks in a nursing home with a pick line so I could receive IV antibiotics to avoid potential infections. The costs have quickly become overwhelming.
As a result of this incident, I am facing numerous challenges, including:
Medical Bills:
The expenses for emergency care, surgeries, and ongoing treatments.
Loss of Income:
Due to my injuries, I have been unable to work, which has further strained my financial situation. I was scheduled to start a new job one week after the attack. The injuries to my right hand/wrist/arm has affected my ability to work at a computer/desk, office setting. I am right hand dominate, and do not have the ability to use this hand to its's full potential, resulting in my inability to work in my field with my experience to make a decent income.
Emotional Toll:
Beyond the physical injuries, the emotional trauma has affected my mental health and everyday life, making even simple tasks feel daunting.
I am humbly asking for your support. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly towards covering my expenses, and helping me regain my footing during this difficult time. Your generosity will not only assist with financial burdens it will also help me with the hope and strength to heal.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I truly appreciate any support you can provide, whether through donations, or by sharing my campaign with others. Together we can help navigate through this and work towards a brighter future.
With gratitude,
Mandy Giampietro
