On December 24th, 2020 due to a rapidly spreading blood infection that began in my right foot, a team of doctors decided that in order to save my life they needed to amputate my left leg. The infection had begun 4 months before and was rapidly spreading, and the only way to save my life was through amputation.

Since then, I have been facing difficulties making ends meet, on top of my important need to purchase a prosthetic leg. The total price of the prosthetic leg is $6,600.00, I have received great support from my relatives abroad who are assisting me with $5,000.00 but I still need $1,600.00 to complete the fee for the prosthetic leg. The prosthetic leg would allow me to walk on my own so I can be independent of the wheelchair I have been on ever since my left leg was amputated. I am a human being with a lot of potential and I love life. I am writing to ask you to help me complete the funds needed for the prosthetic leg and support with 6 months of rent which would help me to get my life back together. I am planning on starting my own business, and also my dog Katrina and my two cats; Salem y Tabata are home waiting for me. I am hoping to have the prosthetic leg this coming Friday. I can’t wait to learn of your generosity to my GoFundMe, and to be home with my furry family. Your compassion is highly appreciated, god bless you.

En diciembre 24, 2020 debido a una infección en la sangre que empezó 4 meses antes en mi pie derecho y terminó expandiéndose a mi pie izquierdo y buena parte de mi cuerpo, los doctores determinaron que para salvar mi vida y parar la gangrena en mi pie izquierdo debían amputar la mitad de mi pierna izquierda.

Debido a mi estatus migratorio no soy elegible para recibir una prótesis la cual me cuesta $6600 dolares y por medio de ayuda de amigos y familiares he conseguido $5000 pero aún estoy corto por $1600

Para poder conseguir esa prótesis que me permita volver a hacer una vida normal como la que llevaba antes y no estar postrado en una silla de ruedas quiero volver a trabajar y ser útil a la comunidad y solo con mi prótesis lo podre hacer
