<div>Hello, my name is Mahmut Akgün. I need your support to be able to walk again.


</div>


<div>In 2008, at the age of 21 — the most productive time of my life — I was involved in a traffic accident that left me with a spinal cord injury. Since then, I have had to live with paralysis and face many ongoing health challenges over the years.


</div>


<div>Unfortunately, the treatments I’ve been able to access with limited resources have not been enough to help me walk again.


</div>


<div>But now, advances in medical technology have given me hope. A spinal cord stimulator, developed in the USA, has shown promising results in helping paralysed patients like me in different countries.


</div>


<div>My doctor noticed some slight positive movement in my right leg and told me that if I can have this surgery, I may have a real chance to get out of my wheelchair and walk again with crutches.


</div>


<div>However, this surgery and the necessary post-operative physiotherapy come at a high cost: $45,000 USD in total.


</div>


<div>I am currently short of $25,000 USD to complete my treatment.


</div>


<div>I have a proforma invoice from my doctor showing exactly where your donations will go.


</div>


<div>With your support, I hope to dream again — of walking, of standing on my own two feet.


</div>


<div>I am truly grateful for any help you can provide. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
