Join Ross in His Battle with Type 1 Diabetes

Donation protected
Hello Everyone,

My name is Ross O. and I'm reaching out for help during one of the most challenging times of my life. I recently started a new job and felt like everything was finally falling into place until my health suddenly took a turn. I began feeling extremely dehydrated every day, dealing with painful leg cramps, blurry vision, and feeling constantly sick and exhausted. Things got so bad that I was admitted to the ICU and found out I was DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis) - my blood sugar had dangerously spiked to 666, when a healthy range is only 60-90. I spent four days in the ICU, fighting for my life, and I truly believe that through prayer and God's timing, I was able to pull through and be released. Now I have been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and high blood pressure, and I'm determined to take control of my health. I've applied for insurance through my new job, but it hasn't started yet and the cost of my insulin, blood pressure medication, daily diabetic supplies, and especially an insulin pump is far more than I can manage alone right now. Your support will cover:

• Insulin and diabetic supplies
• Blood pressure medication
• An insulin pump and related medical equipment
• Doctor visits and lab tests

Any amount helps, no donation is too small. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing my story with others who might be able to help me continue fighting for a healthy future.

Thank you so much for reading my story, for your prayers, and for standing with me in this fight.

With Gratitude,
Ross O.
