Medical Crisis: Help Needed for Recovery

Donation protected
Hello, friends and compassionate individuals,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out with a heavy heart, humbly seeking your support during an incredibly challenging time in my life. Over the past few years, I have faced a series of unfortunate events that have left me emotionally and physically battered.

In 2021, the passing of my beloved Nana left me emotionally shattered. The following year, just as I began to recover, I was hit by two consecutive viral illnesses that took a toll on my health, requiring more than two months of recovery. At the start of 2023, as a result of a depleted immune system and incredibly high viral load in my body, what I initially thought was a stroke turned out to be Bell's Palsy, affecting me physically, neurologically, and mentally.

As I battled the ongoing impact of Bell's Palsy, an unforeseen accident towards the end of 2023 led to emergency surgery on my hand. Now, in the early months of 2024, I am still in the process of physical recovery from this incident while grappling with yet another health issue.

Towards the end of 2023, severe light sensitivity emerged, initially attributed to medication side effects. Fast forward to 2024, not only does the light sensitivity persist, making daily tasks challenging, but my left eye's vision has become blurry and clouded. These health challenges have left me with many ongoing limitations, including hearing loss, limited hand mobility, and now, partial vision loss, making it nearly impossible to find reliable work.

The accumulating medical bills, including emergency room visits, surgeries, and ongoing treatments, have created an overwhelming financial burden. Although I am insured through the healthcare marketplace, it falls short of covering the extensive medical expenses, leaving me with no choice but to turn to the generosity of others.

I am facing the possibility of two potentially dangerous operations—one on my eye and another on my head—to address nerve damage from Bell's Palsy, and my insurance coverage is barely sufficient. To add to the rigmarole, I've been unable to secure reliable, legitimate work-from-home employment for the past two months.

I am reaching out for support to afford essential medical care, cover bills, and simply make ends meet during this critical period. To pursue the necessary treatments and surgeries, I need to visit multiple doctors, and the expenses associated with these visits are daunting.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will go a long way in helping me navigate this challenging journey toward recovery. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with your network to amplify its reach.

I am immensely grateful for any support you can provide. Thank you for standing by me during this difficult time.

With heartfelt thanks,
Rebecka
