Life or death
My name is Theresa atallah , and I am reaching out with hope and humility to ask for help during one of the most difficult moments of my life. For more than nine years, I have been living with severe iron deficiency anemia. Because of financial difficulties, I was never able to receive the proper treatment that my condition requires.
Over the years, my health has gradually become worse. My recent blood test shows that my hemoglobin level has dropped to a dangerously low level, meaning my body is not getting enough oxygen through the blood. Because of this, I suffer daily from extreme fatigue, dizziness, weakness, and shortness of breath. I also experience very high heartbeats and a constant feeling of not getting enough oxygen, which makes even simple activities extremely difficult.
In the past week alone, I have fainted more than four times due to my condition. I also suffer from an inflamed throat that makes it difficult and painful for me to eat properly, which has made my physical condition even weaker.
My doctor has warned me that my situation is urgent and that I must begin treatment as soon as possible. I was told that delaying treatment could lead to serious complications, including heart problems or even life-threatening risks. I also have voice messages from my doctor explaining the urgency of starting treatment immediately.
Unfortunately, the medical tests, medications, and treatments I need are very expensive, and my family and I cannot afford them on our own. After struggling with this illness for many years without proper care, I am finally asking for help.
Any support you can give, no matter how small, would mean the world to me and will go directly toward my treatment and recovery. If you are unable to donate, sharing my story could also help me reach someone who might be able to help.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness you can offer during this difficult time.
