My name is LaVonne M. Mattson.  In Dec 2013 I underwent heart surgery to replace my aortic valve (bad from birth) and ended up in a damaging coma.  I've 2 Autistic children who depend on me, even though grown, there isn't much help out there for them socially speaking., and they depend on me, my purpose in life is not over yet!! There are others and my other children yet they need me the most I think.  The damage from the surgery being on the vent days and days caused me to rely on a CPAP for breathing at night.  It isn't a simple case of snoring, my airways collapse.  It is so horrible to go through I wish this on no one, ever!!  I am in desperate need of a CPAP replacement since the one I had stopped working and the one am using now that belonged to deceased relative is not working to it's full potential and isn't blowing the air strongly like I need and is so very difficult to sleep and scared to die.   It is a shame in the United States that there is not more help and support for people to receive necessary medical equipment.  It is a long process and many times ends up with no results even though complying as a patient to do everything that needs to be done.  So I find myself doing a gofundme, for the first time.  It is embarrassing and frankly a it humiliating having to do so.  I'm not even sure if anyone will care about my particular situation.  I'm not the type to complain or outwardly ask for help like this.  I've went through every route possible trying to fix this for myself.  Between $600 to $900 is the cost of the CPAP machine I need, that amount is urgent, now.  If I am lucky to raise more then it will go towards a non-motorized wheelchair and other medical supplies I am in need of.  Whoever donates to me, there is no words to describe how grateful I will be!!  I greatly appreciate!!  I will post updates on my page if I receive the urgent monies needed, pictures etc... for everyone to see, and receipts.  Whether you believe in God or not, if you donate to my cause I will pray for you regular too, that if you are in need or ever end up in a situation like me that you too receive help and not have to suffer or be left by the wayside.   Thank you so much for reading, I really appreciate your time, whether you decide to donate to me or not, thank you!!  With much love!!  And to those who do decide to donate, there is no way I can ever show just how much this means to me and how much suffering you will be ending by doing so.  I thank you the deepest a person can ever thank another person!!  Sincerely, LaVonne M Mattson
