I'm so ashamed to be asking for help.
On April 8, 2026, my life changed forever. I underwent surgery to remove a tennis ball-sized meningioma brain tumor that I had no idea I had. During the operation, I experienced significant blood loss, and the surgeons were unable to remove the entire tumor because it was located near a critical vein called the sagittal sinus.
When I woke up, I had lost the use of my left side.
Before surgery, I was an active wife, mother, and full-time professional. Today, I am fighting every day to regain the ability to use my arm and hand, improve my vision, and restore my independence. Simple tasks that most people take for granted—driving, caring for my children, preparing meals, and even reading—have become difficult challenges.
I am currently undergoing rehabilitation and working hard to recover. While I have made progress with walking, my left arm and hand remain significantly impaired. I also face additional medical procedures ahead, including a cranioplasty surgery to replace the portion of my skull that was removed during my tumor surgery.
My husband has had to take time away from work to help care for me and our two young daughters, including our 9-month-old baby and our 3-year-old daughter. The financial impact has been overwhelming. My income has been reduced while on disability leave, and medical bills, insurance costs, rehabilitation expenses, and everyday household expenses continue to add up.
We are asking for help to ease the financial burden during this difficult season. Any donation, no matter the amount, will help support our family as I focus on healing, rehabilitation, and being the mother my daughters need.
If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping our family in your prayers.
Thank you for your kindness, support, and encouragement. It means more than words can express.
