Sally has faced a challenging medical journey after an unexpected illness nearly took her life. While following a strict dairy-based diet, she became seriously ill and required emergency surgery, resulting in a colostomy. Since then, Sally’s recovery has been slow, and the impact on her daily life has been profound. She’s working hard to regain her independence and return to her studies, focusing on a general bachelor’s degree with interests in psychology, art, and creative crafts. The colostomy has made it difficult for Sally to feel like herself, and she dreams of a reversal surgery that would help her reclaim her sense of normalcy and move forward with her goals.

Accessing the care she needs has been a major challenge. Sally must travel to Los Angeles or San Francisco to see a specialist, which adds significant financial strain on top of her medical bills. Finding a good private doctor is essential for her recovery, but the costs are overwhelming. Without a strong support system—her father passed away three years ago, and she has experienced homelessness off and on—Sally is facing these obstacles largely on her own.

By supporting Sally’s fundraiser, you’ll help her cover the costs of surgery, travel, and ongoing medical care. Your generosity will make a real difference in her ability to heal, return to school, and rebuild her life. Every contribution brings her closer to a future where she can pursue her passions and live with dignity.
