Dear friends,

I never imagined I’d be writing a letter like this, but I believe in honesty, vulnerability, and community.

I recently underwent surgery after living with debilitating sciatica pain that kept me bedridden for months. I had tried everything—physical therapy, acupuncture, injections—but nothing provided relief. Surgery became the only path forward.

Now, I’m in recovery with about 5–6 weeks to go. It’s a slow, tender process, and I’m doing my best to rest and heal.

As many of you know, I run my brand Lola Faturoti Loves on my own. This unexpected health crisis has meant putting my work and income on pause. I’ve had to cancel summer pop-ups and trunk shows, important key opportunities, and step away from the studio.

That’s why I’m asking for your support. Your donation, no matter the amount, will help me cover medical costs, rent, food, and keep my small business afloat through this difficult season.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of my healing. Your kindness means the world to me.

With love,

Lola Faturoti
