<div>Hi, my name is Licia, and I’m reaching out from Texas. I’ve been diagnosed with congestive heart failure (CHF) — a condition that has deeply affected my ability to live, work, and care for myself. After a long road of testing and treatment, I’ve now been approved for a heart transplant — a life-saving step that gives me hope for a future.

<div> My Story

</div>

<div>Heart disease runs in my family — my grandmother, mother, and aunts all suffered from heart failure. Now I’m walking that same difficult path.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Lately, even the simplest parts of daily life have become impossible. I need help with nearly everything — showering, brushing my teeth, cooking, even basic cleaning. My body is tired. My heart is failing. But I’m holding on with everything I have.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>To make things even harder, I was recently laid off from my job at Microsoft. Losing my income while facing a major medical crisis has left me overwhelmed and vulnerable. 

</div>

<div>While I do have insurance, this is switching to COBRA coverage. I’m facing a long journey of pre- and post-transplant care, and the costs are astronomical. I have multiple doctor visits and hospitalizations and even transportation has become an issue. I no longer drive.

<div>❤️ How You Can Help

</div>

<div>This is a humbling moment in my life. I never thought I’d be here — asking for help to simply survive. But here I am, and I truly need you. If you're in a position to give, no amount is too small. Every dollar brings me one step closer to recovery and stability. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing this page — it truly makes a difference.

</div>

</div>

<div> Thank You

</div>

<div>Asking for help isn’t easy, but it’s something I’ve learned to do with humility and hope. Your kindness and generosity will never be forgotten.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for reading, for caring, and for being part of this journey with me.

</div>

<div>With heartfelt gratitude,

</div>

<div>Licia
