My name is Noah Flores and this is my mom Maggie
For those who don't know I am an aspiring wrestler who left home to pursue my dream. what I usually try to avoid talking about is what i had to leave behind, and thats the woman you see in the picture.
Since I was 13 I've been my moms primary care-taker before and after her official diagnosis of Parkinsons disease. Like any degenerative disease it can be show differently in everyone, and for my mom it unfortunately targeted her right side which was her dominant side. This impacted her career tremendously as she had been a cosmetlogist for over thirty years and had even become an established teacher at one of Iowa's premiere beautician college.
But through my teenage years my mom did everything in her power and then some to ensure that i had a roof over my head and food on my plate, and i always did my best to make sure she wouldn't have to worry about anything tedious.
fast forward and my mom has done an ok job of caring for herself, and i've helped whenever and however i can. But these last few months have only gotten harder, she had to have foot surgery that still hasn't healed properly and as recent as may she broke three of her toes on that same foot, which in turn caused her to quit her most recent job. I visited her for a week in June and her balance had become so off-center that she now required use of her cane and walking stroller.
I had even made the decision to move back, but current situations keep me from doing so, which is why I'm reaching out and asking, begging, pleading for help for my mom
this amount is really only a small amount of what could truly help to reestablish stability for my mom, my ultaimaste goal is to get anough that i can pay her monthly rent off and over half her current car but self-doubt keeps telling me to keep it low so i can be happy with what comes for her
My mom has done everything for me and i really feel like I've only ever done a fraction of that to repay her. I am at my most exposed here asking to do this but i don't see any other way to get ahead of this for her than by asking for help
thank you for your consideration.
