Help Farrah live a pain free life!
Donation protected
Hello, my name is James and I'm asking for your help for someone I love and who is loved by many, my girlfriend: Farrah Benoit.
Farrah has endured unrelenting pain for over 20 years while seeking help from multiple doctors, who could offer no solution at all. Since September 2023, her condition has taken a drastic turn for the worse, and she now lives in chronic, daily pain. The agony often leaves her unable to enjoy activities or even manage simple daily tasks like spending quality time with her loved ones. After tirelessly advocating for herself and consulting with numerous specialists, she finally received an MRI confirming deep pelvic stage 4 endometriosis in February 2024.
Farrah found hope in Dr. Seckin, an endometriosis specialist with over 30 years of surgical experience and co-founder of the Endometriosis Foundation of America. He has identified the full extent of her condition and offers a comprehensive solution with excision surgery, a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach.
Endometriosis has no cure and can affect not only the peritoneum and organs in the pelvic region but can also spread to other parts of the body. Treating deep-pelvic endometriosis requires involving specialists from multiple disciplines to ensure positive treatment outcomes. Dr. Seckin follows a multidisciplinary approach that draws on expertise from pathologists, anesthesiologists, gastroenterologists, urologists, thoracic surgeons, psychologists, and radiologists. This approach ensures accurate, symptom-specific advice and positive post-operative coping strategies for a smooth recovery.
However, Dr. Seckin’s services are out-of-network for all providers, and the cost of the surgery alone is $20,000, excluding hospital fees. Thankfully, her insurance will help cover these hospital expenses.
In Farrah's words: "Living with this kind of pain day in and day out is exhausting. I've tried everything, but nothing has brought lasting relief. Even though I’m positive and staying strong physically and mentally, I look forward to waking up without chronic pain each day and being able to live fully without the constant burden of pain."
Despite being a private person, Farrah needs our support to fund this life-changing surgery. I'm organizing this campaign to relieve her of some of the burden. Every donation, no matter the amount, will directly contribute to her journey toward a pain-free life, with surgery urgently scheduled for July 18, 2024.
Please donate if you can or share this campaign with others who may be able to help. With so many people who love and cherish Farrah, I am confident we can come together and make a meaningful difference in her life. Every dollar makes an impact, directly funding Farrah's treatment and enabling her to find relief and regain a normal, fulfilling life.
We are incredibly grateful for your kindness and generosity. Let’s unite to give Farrah a chance to live a life filled with joy and free from pain. We'll keep you updated on her progress and show how your generosity made a difference.
