My Story
My name is Alma Delia Ramirez but everybody calls me Delia, I am 51 year old and divorced.
10 years ago I made the terrible mistake of getting breast implants, ever since I got them I felt like something was not quite right .
I didn’t felt pain at first but as time passed by I started feeling pain in the breast area and felt some breast lumps, I keep forgetting things and developed intolerance to gluten and other meals and some other issues stared to develop little by little.
Issues such as pain in my left knee, left arm, back, hair loss, numbing and pins and needles sensations on my hands, joint and bone pain, dry skin, anxiety attacks, depression, stomach ache and tiredness I thought becoming vegan would fix some of this issues but it didn’t happen
In the last couple of weeks the pain has become permanent, it won’t go away, I already had some blood tests and everything seems to be ok.
But still I felt like something isn’t right, I mean if my test says I am ok why I still feel so terrible?
So I kept researching about breast implants and did some findings about many other women that have been in my situation and the same symptoms and issues I am going through and they had their implants removed, thank god they had the economic resources to get them removed, sadly is not my case.
And this is the reason why I am asking for help, because I fear for my life, I need to get this toxic implants out of my body and I don’t have a permanent job or a steady income, my job is independent sales and since the pandemic started is really hard to make enough to cover my basic needs including bills rent and taking care of my beloved Toby my 7 year old beagle which I am the only family he has if I am not well nobody can take care of my baby Toby and he also require special care, I have to make his food every day since he can’t eat regular dry pet food I need to be good so Toby don’t die on me,I would be devastated if he dies because I can’t take care of him .
My surgery and travel expenses make a total of a little over of $14,000 and I have to pay this out of pocket since I hardly have work I can’t afford insurance
The surgery is not just remove the implants but also reconstruct the breast area as well
I try to hide the pain I feel every day I try to look strong showing a smile and keep myself optimistic and thinking that everything is ok but is not .. I am hoping that soon I can get this much needed surgery with your help if is in your heart to donate so I can get my surgery and be ok to keep working and take care of my beloved Toby
Thanks ahead for your help and for reading my story , may God bless each and every one of you.
Sincerely.
