<div>Many don’t know that in the past 20 years, I’ve lived silently with a <strong>rare congenital anomaly named “Bertolotti Syndrome”, affecting less than 7% of the population.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>This disorder causes bone-to -bone contact of an “extra bone” at the last vertebrae of the spine with the sacrum, resulting in chronic lower back pain.</strong>

<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a last resort, I had a life-changing fusion surgery this year. Being “on the other side”, I know how it felt for me these past 20 years and wish I knew certain things before. I am in a better place now to provide help, insights and to make a change for my fellow Bertolotti Warriors who didn’t get their answers and solutions yet.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>⚡ <strong>With this in mind, I created the first Bertolotti Syndrome website with as mission to empower and help others going through the same, to raise awareness, provide resources and foster a supportive community on this platform: </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><a href="https://www.bertolotti-syndrome.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>www.bertolotti-syndrome.com</strong></a><strong> </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Based on my thoughts and views, each person has at least one person in their lives, a family member, dear friend, acquaintance, or yourself, that has an impairment, condition or hidden pain, either mentally emotionally and/or physically. However, the situation shouldn’t be getting worse for one to step in and offer help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>That’s why I’m asking for your support today and help me achieving more awareness for Bertolotti Syndrome by sharing </strong><a href="https://www.bertolotti-syndrome.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>www.bertolotti-syndrome.com</strong></a><strong> through your network. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>I have also set an initial goal to raise $10000 that I will distribute amongst those suffering from Bertolotti Syndrome and opting for surgery. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I want to aim high and help as many Bertolotti peers as possible. For the next phase, I will find other ways to collect funds, e.g. through grants. Distribution will start as soon as it hits initial target so that we can make key impacts on numerous lives. My ultimate wish and devotion is to grow this and increase the funds with higher targets to help a significant number of Bertolotti peers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Why me you might think? Or how would my small contribution make an impact? </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It does.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> To put it into perspective, that extra cup of coffee with cake already makes a true difference towards that initial $10000 when we contribute individually as it will reflect collectively towards our bigger goal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>⚡ To show my devotion and to walk the talk, I will personally match your contribution up to $2500 this month. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A little bit can already go far and make an impact, but behind this is not a financial drive. It’s about intangible things such as kindness, hope, love and generosity that I want to spread to those going through this condition and create a ripple effect for future generations.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’ve read till the end of this message, thank you sincerely for taking the time to learn more. This means that one more person is aware of Bertolotti Syndrome and it makes my heart full that I achieved one of the goals that is close to my heart.
