Por Ale

Hi everybody!

Only a few days ago my life was turned up side down, as I was diagnosed with a tumor in my right kidney. This tumor was found to measure already 12 centimeters. It is near my liver and my vena cava (a large vein that supplies blood to my legs and abdominal organs and reaches the heart), which is pressured by the tumor, and this condition has put my life at great risk.

After consulting various experts in this field, we have come to the conclusion that my right kidney has to be removed from my body. The cost of this treatment (surgery and hospital bill) is $ 7,000.00 USD.

I was fortunate to receive a quick appointment for surgery on Tuesday the 2^nd of July. According to the doctors the surgery was successful and everything proceeded as planned. Now it will take my body quite some time to recuperate and the doctors will conduct a whole range of analyzes to find out if the tumor is malignant or not.

I am 27 years old. I am a mother of two young girls (8 months and 4 years old). Friends of mine describe me as a person with tremendous amounts of energy. A fighter that loves challenges, a creative mind, an entrepreneur and someone that always worries about the wellbeing of others. A person that everybody likes, especially the kids!

Well now the moment has come in which I am in need of your help.

My family is very grateful for all the support we have received. We will continue with a lot of faith and trust. We believe this is a challenge that must be transcended in love and optimism.

With love all my gratitude.
