My cry for help: a chance for a new life after failed surgery

Dear good people,

I turn to you with an open heart and tears in my eyes because my life has become a constant struggle and my hope is in your hands. I went through cervical spine surgery with the belief that I would find relief from the excruciating pain and get my former life back. Unfortunately, instead, my condition worsened dramatically. After another discharge from the hospital, the doctors told me that other than pain killers, there was nothing more they could do for me here. I'm back to square one, and every day is filled with agony and frustration.

What hurts me the most is watching my children suffer. They see their mother struggling daily, their formerly vibrant and happy mother gone. They dream of being the woman they remember again - energetic, smiling, full of life. And I dream of that. I dream of being able to play with them again, to cook their favorite meals, to take care of our home without pain.

My only chance for treatment now is in Turkey. There are specialists there who offer hope for recovery and a return to a normal life. But this treatment is financially prohibitive for me and my family. Every day spent in pain is a day lost for me and my children.

So please - reach out and give me a chance. Any help, no matter how small, will be a ray of light in my darkness. Please help me regain my health so I can once again be the mother my children deserve and live life to the fullest.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and support.

With hope and faith,Stella Sevdalinova
