Since first being diagnosed with advanced heart failure and having to undergo her first quadruple bypass heart operation back in 2020, Anoma is now facing one of the biggest challenges of her life both physically and financially.
Recently, Anoma had to undergo a second bypass heart surgery as the first one had become infected, and of course, doctors had to act quickly as this infection had made her septic and offset many other health-related issues, including stage 4 kidney failure. This operation was a major procedure that she was hesitant to undergo due to the fact she’s just been sick for way too long and started to lose her faith and will to keep fighting. She finally decided to go ahead and proceed with the second bypass surgery, but little did she know that 6 days after, as she was recovering, she had a really bad stroke which affected her whole left side from head to toe drastically. As badly as she knew she needed to move forward with the needed procedures, she is constantly worried about not being able to make ends meet with bills and no source of income. With being hospitalized for months at a time, and the amount of therapy she needs to undergo, her insurance is not covering all expenses, and as an unemployed patient, this has become very difficult to make ends meet.
During her recovery, Anoma won’t be able to earn an income as she’s deemed disabled and still hasn’t been able to get approved for disability to at least help with some financial stress. At the same time, the financial burden of surgery, follow-up care, and insurance costs is overwhelming. Her out-of-pocket maximum has already been reached, and yet, there are still more bills coming in. Her insurance co-pays alone are sky-high, and with no income during recovery, it’s becoming harder and harder to stay afloat.
This GoFundMe is to help cover:
Medical bills not covered by insurance
Daily living expenses (rent, utilities, groceries)
Recovery support, including medications and follow-up visits
Anoma is a fighter, always been a hard worker, and someone who’s always given to others. Now, she needs help from her community to make it through this difficult chapter.
If you’re able, please consider donating to support Anoma on her road to recovery. Every dollar helps relieve the pressure so she can focus on healing and eventually getting back to somewhat normal and the life she loves. If you can't help financially, then please help her in prayer.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support.
This message comes from her daughter. I had to convince her to let me share her story because she’s always been someone who puts others first and never likes asking for help. I reminded her that there are kind-hearted people in the world, people who are willing to lend a hand when someone truly needs it. She doesn’t have to face this battle alone.
My mom is one of the hardest-working people I’ve ever known. With the growing financial burden hanging over her, I worry she won’t be able to push herself to the full potential of recovery as she’s always worried about the next thing. She’s always been strong, independent, and determined, even at the cost of her own well-being.
So I’m kindly asking for your help not just to ease the financial strain, but to give her peace of mind. With your support, she can take the time she truly needs to rest, recover, and heal without fear or stress. Every bit helps, and we’re deeply grateful for your generosity and compassion.
