In September 2021, I went to the hospital struggling to breathe while still managing my small DIY boutique business. By February 2022, I left that same hospital paralyzed from the neck down. I lost my eyesight, my sense of smell and taste, the use of my left arm, and most frightening of all, both short- and long-term memory. Without my consent or my family’s knowledge, I underwent unauthorized medical procedures, including a craniotomy and a tracheostomy.

 

Recently, after finally receiving new imaging, a physician made a shocking discovery: a portion of my brain is missing.

 

I have now been told that correcting the damage from the original brain surgery would require three additional invasive surgeries. However, after four years of continuous physical and speech therapy, and living with severe PTSD. Any further brain surgeries would likely cause irreversible setbacks rather than healing.

 

After 14 relentless months of searching for alternatives, I found a treatment that aligns with both my medical needs and my mental well-being: stem cell therapy. This approach offers hope without additional trauma and addresses the inflammation, neuropathy, lymphatic fluid complications, muscle atrophy, bursitis, joint pain, paralysis, and stroke-like symptoms I continue to endure—many of which stem from an allergic reaction to the wrong medication administered before the brain surgery.

 

This treatment is available in Bangkok, Thailand.

 

To proceed, I urgently need assistance with airfare for myself and my full-time care attendant. I can no longer safely care for myself alone. Every step forward now requires support.

 

What makes this journey even more painful is that none of this was ever disclosed to me or my family. not even within the 12,522 pages of medical records I later received, many of which were corrupted or incomplete.

 

I am not asking for sympathy, I am asking for a chance to heal, to reclaim dignity, and to move forward with the least amount of further harm. Your support is not just financial; it is life-restoring.

 

Thank you for standing with me when the system did not.
