Latisha's Stem Cell Transplant❤️️

My name is Latisha, I'm a former medical secretary and cosmetologist... I've always been the type of person reaching out to help others no matter what it was, I have always had a love for children and raised quite a few (nieces, nephew etc.) I gave birth to a healthy baby boy in 1990. In 2007 I adopted my beautiful daughter, My love for children became even stronger after a tragic accident , I was told I could never have children again. I thought that was the hardest situation I had to deal with in my life until I met SCLERODERMA... As years passed on I decided I wanted to work as a medical secretary and I did for many years, until I was stricken with this awful disease. I also worked part time as a cosmetologist for many years... IT WAS MY PASSION! Unfortunately now I'm unable to pursue my passion and dreams. I was diagnosed with RA in 2006 and shortly after they ran multiple blood test , biopsy and all test came back positive signs of scleroderma ... I have the most aggressive form (Systemic Sclerosis ). So after finding out I had Scleroderma I was numb, hurt , angry you name I felt it. My Dr. said Latisha due to Lung complications ( Interstitial Lung Disease) you will not live more then 5 years once diagnosed without receiving a lung transplant. (-ILD) you're condition is chronic. I also suffer from esophagus dysmotility , GI tract , heart disease , chronic pain throughout my entire body and many other health issues all associate to scleroderma . The stem cell transplant HSCT is what most scleroderma fighters describe as "being reborn."( a new birthday ) The transplant doesn't cure the disease because there is no known cure for Scleroderma... If I don't do this soon , I'll have to be re evaluate it all over again . Please HELP!! I'm looking to raise the money for the medication that is needed, unfortunately my medical doesn't cover out of state fees. So I'm responsible for hospital fee, hotel fees, airline fees etc for myself and caregiver... I will not be able to receive any dates for my transplant until I make the first initial payment to the hospital in the amount of $2,500 then I can pay the another fees while I'm there. I will be in Chicago for about 4 & 6 weeks , it's all up to how my body will respond to the new cells... I will not be able to move forward with the transplant without the money, so I encourage you to open your heart and donate any amount whether its $1 or $100 , you're donation will mean the world to me & my family. Just think as if I was family. I just want a second chance at life, I want to live the rest of my life without the everyday struggle and pain I endure... LETS SPREAD THE WORD!!! Thank you for taking the time out to read some of my story, God bless you all


P.S MY STORY IS REAL , and I just want to live to see my grandson's grow up and play ball and enjoy life...
