Hello everyone, I’m starting a fundraising campaign to aid me in my hardship that unexpectedly fell on me in a matter of two weeks.
Everything was going great. I was feeling fine. I was playing with my son. I couldn’t ask for anything more. Then life changed instantly. Sunshine turned into thunderstorms. Sweet turned to bitter.

I was hospitalized on November 2nd due to a rare infection that only affects 1.6 out of 100,000 men. The mortality rate is as high as 48 percent. I was on the brink of losing my life. During the eleven days of my hospitalization, I underwent three life-preserving surgeries. I had also lost my job, had to surrender my car, fell behind on monthly bills, and accrued a massive medical debt. I was devastated, to say the least. In the midst of my circumstances, I’m also finding it hard to afford my ten prescription drugs.
Can you make a contribution today to help turn around such a devastating situation?
Life can change instantly, but I have faith in the possibility of my situation getting better. I have a goal of raising $13,000 in 90 days. Your contribution will go a long way. The funds will be distributed as follows::
- $1,500 to Get caught up on my monthly bills
- $9,700 to Settle my medical debts
- $600 to Purchase essential things for my son and me
- $1,200 to Afford my ten life-saving prescription medications
- Any additional income to supplement lost income during an already difficult time
I’m thankful for my sister. She’s a nurse in profession and has helped me in tremendous ways. However, she is a mother of four children, and she cannot do this alone.
So, will you help today? A gift of $20 can have a profound impact on my recovery.
I will forever be grateful for you considering donating. I believe that collectively, the goodness of people will prevail.
With thanks,
Adrian
