Support Karla Cafiero's Heart Surgery Journey

Donation protected
My name is Daniella Cafiero and I’m raising funds for my sister Karla Cafiero, Peruvian Powerlifting Master Athlete I 84 and mother of 2, who has recently been diagnosed with third-degree AV block, which is a serious heart condition where there is complete blockage of electrical signals between the atria (upper chambers) and ventricles (lower chambers). The primary treatment is a pacemaker implantation as it usually requires a permanent device to regulate the heart rhythm due to the complete disruption of electrical signals in the heart. These funds will cover the cost of the pacemaker.

Before this medical condition which has completely changed her way of living and having to stop powerlifting, Karla accomplished numerous Powerlifting titles for Peru last year.

Master Athlete I -84

*National Championships*
- Absolute Regional Champion 2024
- Absolute National Champion 2024

3 National Records

*International Championships*
- South American Champion 2024

Mi nombre es Daniella Cafiero y estoy recaudando fondos para mi hermana Karla Cafiero, Atleta de Powerlifting Master Peruana I 84 y madre de dos niños, quien ha sido diagnosticada con una insuficiencia cardiaca de bloqueo AV grado 3, una arritmia que impide que el corazón bombee suficiente sangre. Se trata de una emergencia que requiere atención médica inmediata por lo cual debe implantarse un marcapasos para regular los latidos del corazón. Estos fondos serán para cubrir el costo del marcapasos.

Antes de este diagnóstico que ha cambiado su marra de vivir y tener que parar de practicar el deporte de Powerlifting, Karla consiguió estos títulos como Atleta de Powerlifting Peruana:

*A nivel nacional*
- Campeona regional Absoluta 2024
- Campeona nacional Absoluta 2024

3 récords Nacionales

*A nivel Internacional*
