Hi, my name is Widad Cheikh Ali, I’m 27 years old, and I never imagined I would one day have to ask for help like this.
Five years ago, my life changed forever. What started as small, seemingly harmless symptoms, fatigue, numbness, difficulty walking, turned into a diagnosis that stopped me in my tracks: Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a chronic and unpredictable disease that slowly damages the nerves and disrupts the connection between the brain and body.

MS has taken from me what I once took for granted.
First, it was the numbness.
Then, the weakness.
And eventually… my ability to walk.

Today, I rely on support for movements I used to do effortlessly. My days are filled with pain, spasms, and uncertainty about what tomorrow will bring. But even in the hardest moments, I refuse to give up hope.

Recently, after several medical evaluations, specialists confirmed that I urgently need a 12-month rehabilitation and neuromodulation program. This is my best chance to prevent further nerve damage and regain mobility.

The treatment includes:
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)
Neuromuscular rehabilitation
Needle therapy (dry needling)
Specialized spasticity treatments
24 targeted medical sessions crucial for managing my condition

This program is not just therapy. It is my lifeline. It offers me a real chance to regain mobility, reduce pain, and rebuild my independence.

💔 The Financial Burden
The full treatment costs $30,000 for 12 months. With ongoing therapy, transportation, medical supplies, and living expenses, the total I need to secure is $40,000.

As a young woman who can no longer work because of MS, I simply cannot do this alone.

Why I’m Asking for Your Help
I’ve always believed in being strong and handling life on my own. But today, I have no other choice. I am fighting for my future,
To walk again
To stand on my own feet
To live without constant pain
To take back the life MS is trying to steal from me

Every donation, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to hope, healing, and independence.
If you cannot donate, please share my story. Your support means the world to me and helps give me a fighting chance.
From the bottom of my heart,

Widad
