Help our mother breathe

Donation protected
My mother has has a hard life when it comes to her health, but she has never let it get in the way of being the amazing mother I am so blessed to have. She deserves to be able to not struggle with her breathing and improve er overall health. I have asked her to give a brief story explaining her health history and current health status;

"Hello My name is Mary G Makrilias. I am a 58 year old female. I have a condition called ITP and had my spleen removed when I was 9. Since this happened now it has created a condition of repetitive blood clots to my lungs. I have had several since 1993 . These Pulmonary Embolisms (blood clots) have weakened my respiratory system. I have chronic breathing problems that makes it difficult for me to breath. Breathing now with the severe damage to my lungs makes it difficult to walk and breath.
I am reaching out for help. I currently take blood thinners and nebulizers but that does not seem to help. I still get the clots  and fluid on my lungs. The danger is if it is a large clot it can kill me. I live daily fearful that i may not see another day. I have tried most therapies but nothing alters the fluids that collect in my lung. Every morning is a struggle to clear my lungs and some days I don't think I'll make it. The spasms are very strong. Recently I came across a natural therapy that is available in the US. it is called L-d therapy for respiratory ailments. Unfortunately it is out of my scope of cost. It is medicine that i was told could clear and treat my lungs after 22 weeks of taking it. it is guaranteed if no improvement it can be returned for a full refund. the cost of this therapy is . $600. If I don't have improvement I will not be able to work. Right now daily breathing is a struggle. I am for the first time in my life asking for the generosity of people to help. Thanking you advance for your kindness and generosity."

My mom is one of the most loving, caring, and generous people i know. She is hardworking and always willing to lend help to others in need. Any help would be greatly appreciated
