Help an 82-Year-Old Gain Independence
Donation protected
I am reaching out to my friends & community for help in overcoming a significant obstacle in my life. I suffer from three debilitating diseases: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), which causes severe leg pain when I walk any distance, and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which makes breathing difficult and causes chest discomfort even with short walks. In addition, I have stage 3 kidney disease, also known as Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), that creates fatigue & swelling of both feet.
In addition, I am 82 years old, which also limits my foot travel capability.
These conditions severely limit my ability to get around independently.
Due to my health limitations, I am unable to rely on public transportation like buses. This significantly impacts my ability to manage daily tasks. I am seeking to raise $4000 to purchase a reliable used vehicle. This will provide me with the freedom and independence to access medical appointments, run errands, and continue to work towards my goals.
Any contribution, no matter how small, would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your compassion and support.
