Hello everyone my name is Doua; Please do hear me out for i am in need of finance and please do read a part of my life after this paragraph. I am raising money for my brain surgery and therapy. It will help me a lot because I am an out of state/full time students. I can't get any health insurance coverage, because i'm working 10 hrs a day at minimum wage. I live with my in laws and I don't want to make them feel that I am a burden. I would really appreciate your generosity and kindness for you have shown me that all of my hopes, dreams, and faith in god and the people will never died.I thought that I was just a normal boy who goes to school, come back home, and get every college material finish on time. One day I was riding my bike home from college. It was a really hot and humid weather in Merced, California. Everything was going great until I got home. I started to have this numbness and tingling sensation in my right hand. I didn't thought much of it because I'm a really healthy boy at the age of 20 who always exercise and eat right. I've never done drugs in my life, and I've never cause anything to harm myself nor my family. As I continue making myself hamburger helper and stirring the meat. All of a sudden the numbness and tingling sensation spread from my hand to my arm and then my head. All of my muscle weren't responding and my right hand was clenched into a fist that I can never unclenched it. I thought to myself as everything fade into black and I can only feel my heartbeat, "what's happening to me?" Ten minutes later the paramedic's where kneeling down next to me as I became conscious. I couldn't recall what really happen, but just knowing that I went to the store and fainted. As I think hard about it and with my siblings there to help me I remember what really happen. I was sent to the Hospital and only did a blood test and that was it. Nothing was in my blood and I seem to be doing alright, yet my heart race was beating up to 190. The doctors and nurse didn't send me to do a CAT scan or an MRI. Two years have past by and I haven't have a seizure, but I do still have that numbness and tingling sensation in my right hand. I've tried calming myself down sometimes and it works. On Jan. 29, 2013 in Onalaska, Wisconsin I have the same experience like two years ago in California. Everything fades to black and my right hand clenched again on it's own. I decided to let the seizure takes it's course. All I can hear and feel is only my heartbeat and then I became unconscious. Ten minutes later I woke up and paramedics were kneeling down next to me. I was taken to the hospital and they didn't find anything in my blood. The doctors at Mayo insist me to stay the night and do a CAT scan and MRI. After the test the doctors informed me that I am diagnose with Arterio-venous Malformation on my left brain. It's a tangle of arteries and veins that can cause me to have seizures and migraines. The neurosurgeon told me that my AVM haven't rupture, but when it does it'll cause hemorrhage and I will have stroke. My AVM is located near to my motor and speech skills, and after the surgery I'll have to go through therapy for a full recovery. I'm really shocked about me having this chronic illness with me and how it will change the way I live from now on. I am an out of state students who moved from California to Wisconsin just a year ago. I don't have any health insurance and I'm unemployed. Eventhough my neurosurgeon informed me to NOT go to college? I can't do that for it is my passion to learn and to be the first one in the family member to get a degree that I have dream and strive to reach for. Thank you for taking your time to read a part of my life. As i have stated I would really appreciate you generosity and may god bless you to live a long and happy life.
