My mom, Erika Roman, has always been the heart of our family. As the main provider in our home , she raised my three sisters and I with strength, love, and endless dedication. Her kindness and energy touched everyone around her.

Recently, my mom was diagnosed with pemphigus foliaceus, a rare autoimmune disease that causes painful blistering sores all over her body. The condition has left her unable to work, and she now faces daily pain, sleepless nights, and the emotional toll of losing her independence. Watching her struggle with open wounds, hair loss, and the side effects of medication has been heartbreaking for our entire family. We see her sadness and exhaustion, and it’s difficult to watch the person who once cared for everyone now needing so much care herself.

With her on medical leave, our family is struggling to keep up with the mounting costs of her treatments, medications, travel to appointments, and basic household expenses. As the only one in the household currently working, I’m doing my best to help, but we need support to get through this difficult time. Every donation will go directly toward her medical care and our family’s essential needs, helping us focus on her recovery and well-being. Your support means the world to us as we fight for her health and hope for brighter days ahead.
