Help Gina Get Life-Saving Kidney Surgery

Donation protected
My name is Gina, and for the past 16 years, I have been fighting for my life. After a car accident left me paralyzed, I have faced one health challenge after another. A few years ago, a doctor accidentally punctured my right kidney, and since then, I have been in and out of the hospital with severe infections. I now have a tube coming out of my kidney, and the infections have become so serious that doctors have told me my life is at risk if I don't get my kidney removed soon.

Recently, I survived meningitis in the brain, even when doctors said I might not make it. I am a strong fighter, and I want to keep fighting for my family, who still needs me. The surgery to remove my infected kidney is urgent, but my insurance won't approve it, and no hospital in my town will perform the procedure. I need to travel to a hospital out of town, and the costs for surgery and travel are more than I can manage on my own.

I'm reaching out for help because I want to live longer and be there for my loved ones. Any support—whether it's a donation, a prayer, or sharing my story—would mean the world to me. Thank you for helping me fight for my life and giving me hope for more time with my family.
