Help Dr. Mitra Rebuild Her Life
Donation protected
In the heart of Toronto, Dr. Mitra’s story unfolds - a journey from a skilled cardiologist in her homeland to a brave fighter in Canada. After relocating in 2014 and became a family physician candidate in Ontario, her life took a drastic turn during a 2018 trip to her home country . A yoga accident led to a severe spinal injury, leaving her wheelchair-bound.
The Challenge
The past five years have seen Mitra bravely face her new reality. Despite regaining some upper body mobility, she remains dependent on her wheelchair, her husband, and her community. This shift has significantly impacted her mental health and her role as a mother to her nine-year-old daughter.
Our Goal
We are rallying to raise $18,708.00 CAD to purchase a **QUICKIE Q700-UP M MPD Tilt/Recline for SEDEO PRO ADVANCED** wheelchair, priced at $16,924.00 CAD. This specific goal includes the necessary funds to cover the GoFundMe platform's fee of 2.9% + $0.30 per donation. This wheelchair is more than a mobility device; it's a beacon of hope. It offers features that will allow Mirta to stand, enhancing her independence and enabling her to engage more actively in her life and work. More details about this wheelchair can be found [here ].
Why We Need Your Help
Your donation will directly contribute to purchasing this life-changing wheelchair for Mitra. It's not just about mobility; it's about giving Mirta the chance to reclaim her independence, resume her profession, and experience life with her family to the fullest.
