Priscilla needs life saving heart surgery

Dear Everyone,
I am Caroline, fund raising for my best friend from childhood. Priscilla Mashiri-Mawodza was diagnosed with a heart condition- severe aortic and mitral valve regurgitation plus congestive cardiac failure. Initially the doctors were managing this condition with medications. Sadly about 5 months ago, Priscilla contracted Covid 19 which landed her in ICU for weeks fighting for her life. Fortunately she pulled through but it did put a huge strain on her already struggling heart. Her heart is functioning below normal capacity, leaving her in urgent need for a major surgery to replace the aorta and the mitral valves. Without surgery, her heart will continue to deteriorate.

With the shortage of skilled human resources and facilities which cater for such major surgeries in Zimbabwe, Priscilla has resorted to going to South Africa. She has so far managed to meet the costs of her preliminary tests and investigations. The cardiologist is recommending surgery as a matter of urgency. The total cost estimated at ZAR 320 00/ AUD $29 000/ USD 22 000/ GBP17 000. This will cover the surgery, hospital stay, series of tests to be done during and after the surgery


Priscilla is 43yrs young, a mother of 3 boys and little girl Zoe who is only 3yrs. Please help give my friend a fighting chance. Any contribution will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
