Campaign Story
Hi everyone!
My name is Rozalia and I am trying to raise money for me to obtain medical supplies that are very necessary for my every day life!
To make it short, I got diagnosed with a incurable disease called ulcerative colitis. What it does to you:
You go to washroom minimum 50 times a day, you bleed from your rectum, its like a constant diarrhea. You end up going to washroom every 15 minutes or after every bite no matter what you eat or drink. Huge cramps in your stomach and so much weight loss. Depression and anxiety from not being to able to live normally and being scared to go outside knowing you will have "accident".
I lived like this for few months trying all kinds of medications that are supposed to keep this disease under control but my body rejected them all. I was losing so much weight, my lowest was 35kg. I hated seeing myself in the mirror or showering because I was literally bones and skin. I had no choice but do a surgery because I was at risk of my life.
By the end of November 2019 I had the surgery done. Its an ileostomy which means your colon/large bowel is removed and your small bowel is brought out through your skin where there is a bag attached and thats where you basically poo.
I also had emergency surgery because my small bowel got twisted at 2 points. Im anemic, as well. It's just so hard for me to deal with anything. Plus I have a wound from the surgery that haven't healed over 7 months now and I even had it infected. :(
These bags and other necessary medical supplies are very expensive and because I am still not doing well, I am unable to work and afford anything.
I applied for help from government but due to covid19 this process takes longer than expected. My family doesn't have extra money to help me either which is heartbreaking for them because they do care for me.
If you can donate, I thank you from all my heart ❤ and if you cant please share and spread my story.
Thank you so much everyone! Thank you
