Fahja Baptist is organizing this fundraiser.

My name is Fahja and my brother Donovan and I are creating this urgent fundraiser for our mom. Alongside of us are her 3 biggest fans - her grandchildren - DeAngelo, Divinci, and Divine. Thank you for hearing our request.

On May 23rd (2 days before my brother's high school graduation), our mom was assaulted by 5 men after leaving work and heading home. She was badly injured and had a CT scan of her face and head to look for internal bleeding. Incedentely, they discovered an extremely rare brain tumor instead located in her 3rd ventricle which is significantly obstructing her flow of cerebral spinal fluid essential for life. Less than 1% of all brain tumors are of this kind and their removal requires operating in the deepest part of the brain.

My mom has always been the one who sacrifices herself for others, she is the ultimate caregiver and everything she does, she does with pure love accompanied with frequent laughter. Now she needs our help. Those of you who know her personally fully understand how many trials and tribulations she has encountered and how many unimaginable challenges she has overcome. Please help us help our mom get through this.

She is going to start a blog to share her journey and help her heal - while keeping those who love her up to date. The link will be updated on here when ready, but be on the lookout for the WTF_Chronicals.com soon.

"I am literally crying out for support, strength, and spiritual love to help me survive. I am afraid - which is a feeling I haven't felt since I was a young girl. I cannot get through this alone - which is a statement that has never come out of my mouth.
One of my favorite things about life is it's unpredictabilty and the element of surprise around the corner at any given moment. Not a big fan at the moment however.
My life has flipped upside down and shaken me to the core in the last month. I am the most vulnerable I've ever been and I am calling out to my community for help because I have no idea how I can endure this surgery and recover while mainting my financial obligations and most importantly - the security of a roof over our heads." ~AnJahla
