Asia Wheeler, my daughter, has faced lifelong struggles with her weight, and now her health is at a critical point. She experiences daily pain in her back, making even simple activities like sleeping, sitting, standing, and walking difficult. When she needs to go out and walk for any length of time, she relies on a cane or walker just to get by. Doctors have told Asia that surgery could help, but she must first lose weight to qualify for the procedure.

As a mother, it is difficult to see your child suffering physically and mentally and feeling so helpless. The most promising option for her is a weight loss injection that has shown real results for people in her situation. Unfortunately, her insurance will not cover the cost because it is only approved for those with diabetes, not for weight loss alone. This has left Asia in a tough spot, as she is unable to afford the full cost of the injections on her own. She has managed to borrow some funds to get started, but she needs additional help to continue treatment through the year and reach her health goals.

We are reaching out to our community for support so Asia can access the medical care she needs. Every contribution will go directly toward the cost of her weight loss injections, helping her move closer to surgery and a life free from daily pain. Your support will make a real difference in Asia’s journey to better health.
