I Am My Brother's Keeper:

Donation protected

My beautiful cousin has a chronic illness known as dysautonomia/orthostatic hypotension (POTS) that recently caused her to take a temporary, unpaid leave of absence from work. This illness has altered her entire everyday living and there is NO CURE.
She is on hydration therapy in her home. She went from working 2 jobs to barely working 1in about 6 months.

Dysautonomia is a general term used to describe a breakdown, or failure of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls much of your involuntary functions. Symptoms are wide ranging and can include problems with the regulation of heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and perspiration.
She's always managed her own affairs; however, now that she's on medical leave from work, and have no savings to use while she is without pay, she has become very worried about her financial situation.

To help her out during this difficult season in her life, I'm asking for financial help to aide her in her daily living necessities and bills. She is terrified she will lose our home and have nowhere to go if she is not able to find some assistance to keep her afloat while she is without pay.

From the help of you caring and loving family, friends, & acquaintances, the funding will give her a sense of stability and lift a great deal of worry off of her. I would truly appreciate your help in raising money to ease her mind on her financial burden. No amount is to small. Every Love offering will help!
My Brother's Keeper thanks you in advice for the donation. Please share on FB and email to organizations & people you know that may help.
