<div>Hi my name is Avanell but everyone calls me Nelly. I’ve never shared my story online before but I’ve realized good people could really help. For the past 2 years I have been dealing with my epilepsy which causes me to have epileptic and non-epileptic seizures.<span> That’s not even the only illness and medical problem I have. For example i’ve had to have 3 surgeries just at the age of 14 and one was BRAIN SURGERY! This has caused me to be hospitalized so many times from seizures. And has caused me to miss out on a lot of experiences people my age have and miss out on going to school with my friends. I have been in and out of the doctor’s office and emergency rooms. The doctors haven’t found a good medication to put me on no matter how many test they do.  But luckily I have a good support system to rely on that really helps. And recently we’ve found out there is a good chance for me to meet a doctor that can finally help me. The only problem is the doctor and treatment I need is in Austin and the doctor is really expensive. And there are a lot of special medical expenses that arent covered by my insurance and I really need them. So I’m asking that if anyone can help even a little bit of money can push me a long way on this journey. All I want is to be able to experience life without fear and hospitals. So donate anything to give me a chance at this life I desire.</span>
