I want to walk n Roll again!

Hello everyone,

My name is Samantha, and I am reaching out to you with a story that has changed my life forever. A few months ago, I experienced a life-altering stroke that nearly took me away from the people I love. The journey since then has been filled with challenges and unexpected turns.

Complicating matters, my condition was further affected by diabetes, leading to complications like blood clots in my legs. Despite my best efforts, the complications persisted, and eventually, I faced the harsh reality of a prolonged and arduous recovery process. The stroke left 50% of my body paralyzed, making even simple tasks incredibly challenging.

Unfortunately, during this time, I developed gangrene, which further escalated the situation, resulting in the amputation of one of my legs. Losing a limb is a profound loss, both physically and emotionally, and it has been a difficult adjustment.

As I navigate this new chapter, I am determined to reclaim my independence and rebuild my life. One crucial step toward that goal is acquiring a wheelchair that will make my daily mobility more manageable. Operating a traditional wheelchair with one arm is incredibly difficult, given the paralysis on one side of my body. A specially designed wheelchair will provide the necessary support and help me regain some control over my movements.

This brings me to why I am reaching out to you all. The cost of a quality wheelchair, along with the ongoing medical expenses, has placed a significant financial burden on me. I am starting a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for a wheelchair that will empower me to move forward.

Your support will not only contribute to purchasing the wheelchair but will also play a vital role in helping me regain control over my life. The road to recovery is challenging, but with your generosity, I believe I can overcome these obstacles and embrace a future filled with hope and possibilities.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering my story and for any support you can offer. Together, we can make a difference in my life and help me take those first steps towards a brighter tomorrow.

With gratitude, Samantha
