I’ve spent my entire life fighting for every breath. Born with cystic fibrosis—a genetic disease that severely damages the lungs—I’ve faced more medical challenges than most people can imagine. After years of treatments, hospital stays, and declining lung function, I held on to hope, even when things got incredibly dark. To survive, I’ve had not one, but two double lung transplants—a rare and difficult path. While I am so incredibly grateful for the surgeries that saved my life, they have also left behind serious physical damage: extensive scarring, damaged tissue, and body mutilations that cause me daily physical pain and deep emotional trauma. I’m finally raising money for the reconstructive plastic surgery to repair the damage and reclaim my life and confidence in myself.  These procedures will help me heal—not just physically, but mentally and emotionally, too. Unfortunately, these procedures are considered cosmetic and are typically not covered by insurance, so the financial implication is astronomical. I’m asking for your support. Every dollar brings me closer to truly healing. If you’re not able to donate, simply sharing my story would mean the world to me. Thank you for all that you have already done and continue to do for me. Your support means the world and I am so grateful for the absolute army I have at my back
