Fighting Multiple Sclerosis with Melinda Garcia

Donation protected
My name is Anita Garcia I am the wife to Melinda Garcia and I am asking for help in raising money for Melinda's medical condition. She recently was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, I will be taking her to to go see a neurologist on September 14,2022, we are in a long process of getting her health insurance but for the time being we have to pay out of pocket to see the neurologist and get the proper examination to see how serve the multiple sclerosis is at this point to seek further treatments. If you are able to contribute to help with funds we appreciate it, we are not the kind to ask for help and we understand if you can not but if you could just say a prayer for her and our family it would be much appreciated! If you do not know what Multiple Sclerosis is, it is a disease that impacts the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves, which make up the central nervous system and controls everything we do. The exact cause of Multiple Sclerosis is unknown, but we do know that something triggers the immune system to attack the central nervous system. The resulting damage to myelin, the protective layer insulating wire-like nerve fibers, disrupts signals to and from the brain. This interruption of communication signals causes unpredictable symptoms such as numbness, tingling, mood changes, memory problems, pain, fatigue, blindness and/or paralysis.
