Hey everyone, I’m making this for my mom, Maria Mancini, because she’s in need of your help. Well, we (me being her daughter) need your help.

Last year, while we were working, my mom’s face went paralyzed out of nowhere. We took her to the emergency room and found out she had Bell’s Palsy. After some weeks and months of doing some physical therapy on her face, she finally got mobility back. She was able to talk, smile, move her eyebrows, blink, etc. However, she suffered hearing loss. We’ve gone to countless doctors trying to figure out how we could maybe exercise how to get her hearing back. Sadly, the hearing loss was permanent due to a reaction from the paralysis. Since then, it’s affected her memory and equilibrium too. Even working together, I can tell she forgets a lot of things or finds it really hard to hear customers. I sadly haven’t been able to afford her any help because, well, times are tough.

I’m here asking for your help to raise money to buy her some hearing aids. Thankfully, we have a Costco membership that we use for our small business and her medications. They have a hearing aid center that I think we can purchase some reasonable ones from. Hearing aids are very expensive, but with your collective help, I think we can reach our goal to help my mama. Anything you can give helps.

Please and thank you,

Sue
