COVID-19 hit my family hard leaving us unemployed and struggling all while I was battling my health and my life  . Back in March 2020 I started having problems breathing I thought it was just a normal cold and would use Normal cold remedies Although with a quick trip to the ER I was diagnosed with pneumonia and an upper respiratory infection back in April which left my lungs in a terrible shape. for months it was impossible to breathe sleep or eat but that was only the beginning. Two months went by and it was still impossible for me to breathe as normal  . But now I had headaches  at a constant it was impossible for me to eat as everything made me sick and I was always dizzy and nauseous.coming into august  I went through numerous tests and they found out I had leukocytosis and hypertension 
my body is weak my muscles slowly diminishing I’m constantly in pain I’m constantly taking vitamins and medicine. Come October I was still dealing with upper respiratory issues along with now my body just feeling like it was falling apart and myself wondering why is this happening to me I’m only 26 years old and my body is giving up on me suffering with fevers over 100 +,dizziness ,loss of vision ,loss of hearing , horrible headaches as if someone were punching my head ,and now horrible abdominal and back pain.Come November 24 I wake up and I cannot see and I feel like total shit. I drive myself to the hospital.and after CAT scans were done they find kidney stones in my right kidney . I can’t take a break my body is attacking itself. December 12 I go in to see my gynecologist and they do a ultrasound on my uterus. I wish I could say that everything came out OK but that’s not how my story goes. They found multiple masses inside my uterus. my heart drops. As if my life couldn’t get any worse. I have started chemotherapy everything that I’ve been going through and all of the pain has just multiplied. Although now my heart aches because I don’t know if I will be able to have children now if these masses don’t go away. I wish I could tell you my story gets better but all in that same time Due to Covid my landlord has been wanting to sell her house and we have been more than compliant into helping her do what she needed to do .although now because she wants to move in she is threatening us to leave without a legal notice or a document . We have been trying to find any legal aid to help us because she is trying to evict us while I am sick while I have been on leave of absence of work because of being sick .while I am absolutely broke and falling apart. We don’t have the money for another deposit nor any savings to go anywhere and with the fires in Alameda there is little to no vacancies anywhere so it’s impossible to find a reasonably priced rental. I don’t have the best of credit although I have been working on it. I’m asking for any help that I can get. I have been suffering through my health for most of 2020 now it’s a new year and now I know why I have been going through so much pain and suffering this past year. I am asking for help from my family and friends so that I won’t be put out on the street while suffering .and so that my little family and I can focus on my health and on having a better life so we can have just enough to move into a new place to be in a healthier environment and to help with any legal aid. I have never been much of a person to do these types of things but with all my heart I have to ask would you help a broken heart?

I am a 26 year old Ems/Fire science student
Wildland firefighter, behavioral therapist, lover of life, lover of Education .I would love to keep learning and living and become a better more essential person in my community if you would please give me that chance

with love,
Natalia
