Hi there!
My name is Sarina Rahmhessari and I am an 11-year-old girl born with a congenital heart defect that has severely impacted my daily life. I have faced numerous challenges, including a collapsed lung, pulmonary hypertension, and multiple ventricular septal defects. As a result I have multiple holes in my heart, leaving me struggling to breathe and limiting my ability to enjoy a normal life as a kid. Currently residing in the United States on a medical visa, I have been presented with an incredible opportunity: a life-changing surgery at John Hopkins Hospital.
To undergo this crucial surgery and improve my chances at a healthy and fulfilling life, my family and I are in need of financial assistance. The total cost of the surgery is $30,000, and there is also the additional expense of replacing my pacemaker, which ranges from $25,000 to $85,000. These expenses are far beyond what my family can afford, and we are relying on the kindness and generosity of compassionate individuals like you.
By supporting this GoFundMe campaign, you can play a direct role in SAVING my life. Your donations will go towards covering the medical expenses associated with the surgery and replacing my pacemaker, ensuring that I can breathe easier, participate in activities, and experience the joys of childhood alongside my friends. No contribution is too small, and every dollar brings me closer to a brighter future.
I humbly request that you not only consider making a donation but also share my campaign with your network. Together, we can create a ripple effect of compassion and support, reaching more people who may be willing to help. Your support is not only a gift of LIFE to me but also a gesture of hope and strength for my parents and family, who have been by my side throughout this challenging journey.
I am incredibly grateful for any assistance you can provide. Your kindness will forever be cherished, and I will be sure to express my heartfelt gratitude throughout my recovery and beyond.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering making a donation. Let's join hands and give me the chance to live a healthy life filled with joy and endless possibilities.
Love,
Sarina
