! PLEASE HELP ME ! If I do not undergo this severe surgery my life and eyesight are at risk.

Hello, my name is Ioanna Darinova Shisheva and I am 26 years old from Razgrad. I am a mother of a wonderful son Alexander who is 7 years old. 3 years ago I started getting frequent headaches with long episodes of 6-7 days every 2-3 days. Gradually the headaches started to become constant, non-stop and strongest in the morning after getting out of bed. I started getting visual disturbances. I visited several neurologists, had many tests done.

I visited neurosurgeons, neuro-ophthalmologists and ophthalmologists and the conclusions of some of them were "Pseudotumor cerebri" or "Benign intracranial hypertension" or "Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension of the brain".

The disease is extremely rare - affecting 1 in 100,000 women who are between the ages of 20 and 40, of childbearing age and overweight. I was prescribed drug treatment, which unfortunately did not help. At the last examination with Professor Yavor Enchev, I was informed that an emergency operation was required to insert a valve mechanism or shunt, which should be placed either in the ventricles of the brain or in the lumborperitoneal region at a cost of over 9200 leva. Unfortunately the cost of the valve mechanism itself is not fully covered by the NHIF, about 10% is covered and the amount is prohibitive for us.

If I do not undergo this severe surgery my life and eyesight are at risk. I beg from the bottom of my heart, you kind and good people to give me the chance to live and be full and to be able to raise my boy fully, for which I am ready to do anything.
