Hi my name is Monique, and I'm reaching out on behalf on my incredible mother, Doreen Hutchinson. She is currently facing a difficult time and needs our help. She currently resides in Jamaica but I work in the Hyde Park community and wanted to reach out and ask for your kindness.

My mom is suffering from severe knee pain caused by arthritis . Simple daily activities like walking, standing, getting out of bed and even showering have become a source of pain and discomfort. Her doctors have recommended a knee surgery as the only real solution to improve her quality of life and restore her mobility.

Unfortunately, the cost of the surgery, physical therapy, and related medical expenses is more than we can manage on our own. That's why we've started this Gofundme- to ask for your support in helping my mother get the care she urgently needs.

Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to easing her pain and giving her a chance at a normal active life she is used to. If you're unable to give, sharing this page with others would mean the world to us.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and support!
