Kayle needs a powerchair!
Donation protected
Hello! My name is Kayle and I am disabled; I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in infancy and have subsequently had two back surgeries, and have been diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, fibromyalgia, and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). All of these cause chronic pain and fatigue. The POTS also causes low blood pressure and heart palpitations which makes it hard to stand upright.
I have used a manual wheelchair in the past, but it has been getting increasingly difficult to push myself. While I have an amazing partner that is willing to push me in the wheelchair, autonomy is very important to me. This is why I am starting this fundraiser to buy myself a power wheelchair!
After researching, I have decided that this wheelchair would be the best for my needs, a total of $1,899. The total fundraiser amount is $1,960 to account for the 2.9% transaction fee for GoFundMe.
Anything helps! Please donate what you can and/or share and spread the word. This chair would mean freedom for me!
Best,
Kayle
