My Archaeology Dig in Transylvania

Donation protected
I want to go to Transylvania!

(Excavation & Bioarchaeology Field
School in Cluj-Napoca http://www.transylvania-bioarchaeology.org)

I beat the odds 1,000,000 to 1
(surviving multiple AVM)

Fought for my dreams

Fought for normalcy and acceptance

And most importantly, fought for my
life

I am a student with a passion for forensic anthropology and archaeology.

My interest in medicine began at an early age, as did my aptitude in biology and science. I was 14 years old, top of my class and captain of the track team at my school when disaster struck. 

I am one of very few people in the entire world to have survived and recovered from multiple haemorrages caused by a cerebral AVM. I was in a coma for one month, had to go through multiple brain surgeries and brain embolisations, several years of rehabilitation, both mental and physical. I learned to walk and talk again by age 17. I have had to repeat years in both high school and university due to recurring brain bleeds and rehabilitation.

This has been difficult and sometimes embarrassing,
but I am determined to persevere! I believe that through giving back people their identities, because identity can be easily lost, bringing comfort to others, I can give back some of what has been taken

Currently I am trying raise £2500 for a dig in Romania this summer that will aid my progression toward my Bsc dissertation.
