<div>Hi, I’m Shannon — Chelsea’s mom.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The last five years have been incredibly difficult for Chelsea. Health issues have taken the forefront in her life as she has steadily gotten worse with time. It’s been heartbreaking to watch her go through so much without answers or relief.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She's lost a significant amount of weight, lives in constant pain, and struggles to stay hydrated and she can't eat to get the nutrition she needs.  She’s been diagnosed with ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), mast cell disease, and most doctors believe she also has POTS Syndrome — we’re currently on a waiting list to confirm that. These are just a few of the many complex and debilitating conditions she’s facing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're watching her fade before our eyes. On her best days, she can sit up in bed. On the worst, she has to be carried to the bathroom. She experiences seizures, and sometimes mid-sentence, she’ll simply lose consciousness. It’s terrifying. And the hardest part? Most doctors don’t know how to treat her. These are complicated, often overlapping autoimmune conditions — and there’s a gap in the medical world when it comes to understanding and managing them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That’s why we’re turning to Dr. Troy Spruill at the Synapse Center for Health and Healing in Minnesota. He has experience with these conditions and, most importantly, a strong track record of helping people recover and reclaim their lives. But the cost is significant.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If we can just get Chelsea to him, we believe it could be a step in the right direction for her. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is not easy for me to share — I’ve always been someone who keeps things close to the vest. But you’ll do anything for your child, no matter how grown they are. And right now, we need help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If all you can offer is a prayer — please pray. Pray for strength, for healing, for hydration, for pain relief, for financial provision, or for a miracle. We’ll take every single one of those prayers with grateful hearts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And if you’re in a position to give financially — whether it’s $5, $50, or more — we would be deeply thankful. Every bit brings us closer to hope, and to healing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your love, your support, and your kindness.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude,
</div>
<div>Shannon
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
