Help Nariya Recover: Support Her Medical Challenges

I'm starting this GoFundMe to help bridge the financial gap while my wife is on medical leave from her job. Even with insurance, we face current and future medical expenses due to her extended and difficult health battle. On March 1st, 2025, Nariya was hospitalized due to kidney failure, severe blood loss, pneumonia, the flu, fluid around her heart, a viral infection, and damage to her eyes. What started as a simple urgent care visit turned into a life-changing diagnosis.

A kidney biopsy confirmed that Nariya has Lupus affecting her kidneys, in addition to Rheumatoid Arthritis, which she has managed for years. She currently has 20-25% kidney function. Thankfully, she has not needed dialysis, and with proper treatment and lifestyle adjustments, doctors believe she can avoid a transplant. While she has recovered from pneumonia, the flu, and other infections, Lupus and RA will be lifelong challenges.

Any funds raised will help with medical bills, future prescriptions, future appointments with specialists, and the costs of adjusting to her new lifestyle once she is discharged.

How You Can Help:

Our goal is to raise funds to help while she is on short-term leave. Any donation—big or small—will help ease our new financial burden during this difficult time. If you’re unable to give, we deeply appreciate prayers, well wishes, and sharing this fundraiser with others.

Nariya is hardworking, kind, intelligent, and endlessly positive despite these challenges. Your support means the world to us. Thank you for being part of her recovery journey.
