Hello everyone!
I am writing this with a heavy heart but also with a lot of hope. For the past few years, I have been fighting a battle that I never expected to face.
Some time ago, I received a diagnosis that changed everything: I was told I had a severe blood disorder. It was a massive shock that felt like the world was collapsing around me. In that moment, nothing else mattered except survival. I moved to New York to focus entirely on my treatment and recovery.
The recovery took two long years. During that time, while I was focused on getting my health back, the rest of my life began to slip away. Because I couldn't work at full capacity, I began to fall behind on my bills. I managed to earn some money here and there to keep things afloat, but the debt kept growing. I found myself on the brink of bankruptcy and, most terrifyingly, on the verge of losing my home.
I’ve worked incredibly hard to get to where I am today. I have managed to pay off a portion of my debts, which bought me some time, but the situation remains critical. Now that I am healthy and back on my feet, I have been trying everything to fix this. I applied for refinancing to consolidate my debts and save my apartment, but because of the financial damage caused during my illness, the banks have turned me down for the full amount I need.
I am so close to rebuilding my life. I have my health back, I have my strength back, and I am ready to work. But I am facing the very real possibility of being homeless before I can fully recover financially.
I am asking for your help to cover the remaining critical debt and save my home. This apartment isn't just a place to live; it’s the foundation of the new life I’ve fought so hard to keep. Even my dog, Yuki, needs this home to stay safe with me.
Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly toward my housing payments and keeping me from foreclosure. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing my story.
Thank you for your kindness, your time, and for believing in second chances.
