Hi my name is Brianna Royce. I’ve struggled with health issues for a few years now and it’s only getting worse. Recently I’ve been diagnosed with Lupus SLE, Sjögren’s Syndrome, Celiac Disease, and Raynauds Syndrome. They are all autoimmune conditions. My immune system is attacking itself which then leads to inflammation. I’ve had a hysterectomy, appendectomy, and a cholecystectomy due to inflammation shutting down my organs. I eventually need a tonsillectomy. I now have myocarditis and pericarditis of the heart, gastritis, along with kidney issues.

My condition(s) have made it difficult to work a lot of the time. I’ve been on two medical leaves within the last year.

I’ve been traveling to Cleveland with my mother for treatment. The money donated will be used to cover the costs of my medical appointments, bills, medicine, and travel costs to the Cleveland Clinic.
