For those of you who don't know, my name is Ronda. This is very hard for me to do, but I'm coming to you asking for help. I have a teenage daughter who has been diagnosed with level 2/level 3 Autism, as well as a variety of other medical and mental health disorders. Because of these, she experiences seizures, paralysis, fainting, and extreme PTSD and panic attacks. Needless to say, the last few years have been more than challenging for us as a family, as parents, but even more so, it has been a daily struggle and debilitating for her. It's been absolutely heartbreaking and shattering to watch my once bright and beautiful girl become a lost, broken shell of her former self. Her mind has begun to prey upon her body, literally. At the worst, she was experiencing a minimum of 50+ seizures daily, losing the ability to use her limbs to the point of being almost completely confined to a wheelchair, as well as concussion after concussion from falling and hitting her head. We were in the ER sometimes 4× a week, and let's not get started on the number of 911 calls, ambulance rides, and countless hospital stays. But her condition is continuing to deteriorate, and I now need to take drastic measures to save my child and get her the help she needs!

We have located some great specialists to take on her case, but they are in Southern California, and we currently live in the Bay Area. So, in order to finally get the care she deserves and needs, we're going to make the huge leap (just her and I for now, as she can't wait much longer with how rapidly she is deteriorating currently) to move down to the LA/Irvine area to be close to specialists who are actually willing to help her! But with me being out of work for years now due to needing to care for my daughter around the clock, we are in need of help as I continue to look for remote work until we can get down there. This is extremely urgent as I'm truly running out of time to save her and ensure we can get her in with the multiple specialists down there! Absolutely anything will help! And this desperate mother will be forever grateful! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, share, donate, and pray for us, for my precious daughter who deserves the chance to be able to function and start really living again!
