Good evening facebook friends and family. In 2018, my husband Peter and I decided to use this medium to help raise funds for medical treatments for 2 heart conditions and to verify the battery life of the implantable Defibulator that I live on, together with some other tests that my Doctors had suggested I have done since it would have been cheaper there. I used this medium out of desperation as there was no other way.

In 2018, I requested medical assistance to travel overseas to have my heart and defibrillator checked which was authorized by one of my Doctors. Over the years it has been one thing to another, but I am forever grateful and thankful.

2020-2021 has again caught us as mostly everyone in a real " back against the wall "effect. In the past I used the selling of BBQ's and financial assistance from my family the best way they could have... Once again I am asking for assistance.

I have chrons disease and growths in the ilium which are causing some problems ..I am having bowel obstructions as well as pain on the lower right of my abdomen. Living with a disease called Lupus you just never know when is it going to attack your body and which organ it will decide to attack next.

I am also in need of more treatments as soon as possible. In November I had to be admitted to the hospital for severe stomach pains,throwing up, and tummy pains...Most of my organs has been affected...Again listen when your body speaks to you..I was again then hospitalized in December last year 1 week before Christmas, having severe tummy pains,loss of appetite. I was examined and sent for a scan and the doctors indeed noticed some growths close to the appendix...when I was discharged I was asked to following with my surgeon for evaluation..I did and he has recommended a capsule endoscopy done. I also have a heap of other issues as Osteoporosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chrons Disease, Gerd, to name a few.I am also indeed of a treatment called IV Zolendronic Acid due to my bones being very brittle that I have to becareful.also the need of further testing so my Doctors can better able to treat me for the other issues that I may have....Having SLE or mixed connective tissue disease is mentally, physically, financially emotionally draining for both my loved ones and myself...No matter what you are able to donate, we would be grateful..you would be surprised that little goes a long way....And I understand that covid has caused numerous issues....We know God will open doors for us as He always has...And I support him for my supportive families,friends,church family,SLALA family and my Doctors who work so tirelessly to make sure I am receiving the right treatments and are well taken care of.

This is a really difficult task to do as I do kot feel comfortable in asking but I am in desperate need....whatever amount is placed upon your heart would be deeply appreciated...it can be $2 or $5...a little goes a long way...Please help me...thank you everyone and God Bless..
