<div>Hello, friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’m reaching out with a heavy heart and a deep sense of urgency. Over the past two years, my health has taken a steep decline, and I find myself facing a daunting combination of challenges. As many of you already know, I’ve been living with kidney disease for many years, and I’m currently on dialysis. While it’s been incredibly difficult to manage day-to-day life, I’ve been told that the only way forward is to get on the transplant list for a kidney. On top of this, I have been told I should also undergo surgery to replace both of my knees due to severe arthritis and osteoporosis.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>These health struggles have made it nearly impossible for me to work and provide for myself. Dialysis treatments are time-consuming, and the pain from my knees has become unbearable. I’ve fallen behind in rent and car payments, and I’m struggling just to keep up with basic living expenses. My mental health has taken a sharp downturn as well, and I often feel overwhelmed, fatigued, and depressed. I’ve isolated myself from friends and family due to lack of energy and resources, and I’m scared of what my future may hold if things don’t change.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My greatest wish is to get another kidney transplant so I can live a normal life again—work a 40-hour job, support myself, and regain a sense of independence and stability. My first transplant lasted 17 years, and I’m incredibly grateful for that time. With a second transplant, I’m hopeful I can live just as long, if not longer, with a kidney that will give me the energy and strength I need to move forward.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>That’s where you come in.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>I’m humbly asking for your help to cover the costs of the transplant process—medical bills, co-payments for doctor visits, and the cost of transportation to and from appointments.</strong> The additional financial burden of keeping up with my rent, car payments, and basic needs is a daily stressor I can’t carry alone right now.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you can donate, share this page with your network, or offer any kind of support, I would be forever grateful. Even the smallest gesture makes a huge difference right now. I’m also reaching out in hope that I might find a kidney donor or someone who could help me get back on my feet.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>To those who have already offered their support in the past, I can’t thank you enough. You’ve helped me more than you know.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I wish I didn’t have to ask for help this way, but I am losing the battle against my health, my fatigue, and my depression. I don’t enjoy having to ask for assistance, but right now, I am scared of losing my car and my apartment, and I don’t have a choice.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Please share it with others if you can.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With deep gratitude,

</div>

<div>Lisa
