Hello everyone, this is extremely hard for me to do. I been always the one helping others and never one to ask for help for myself but I really need your help.  In last year I been dealing with health issues I wasn’t feeling myself and 100% it wasn’t until a couple months back that wasn’t feeling well at all and thinking I was having an allergic reaction went to the emergency room and after many tests’ and three different doctors, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune system disorder (CLL) and Angioedema.   Because I was diagnosed sooner than later I’m able to get treatment. After doing a ton of research and meeting with several doctors.  I’m started my first round on Feb 20th in Santa Barbara CA. The doctors are very confident that everything will go well and feeling very positive about it. Like I mentioned before asking for help it’s extremely hard for me. But not only this been taxing on us due to my health but also our finances we have a business to run and I haven’t been able to work much plus now all the expenses from my treatment and travel is making everything even more challenging. All your contributions will go towards my treatment costs. (Doctor appointments, lab-work, medicine).  For any donation you will received a small painting made by me. I’m sure all of you have seen my work but if not I invite you to visit my website www.almavenacom creating each of my paintings have been in a way my therapy to deal with all of this.  Thank you so much for your support and all the good vibes and messages I get from you.
