Hi, my name is Natalia, and I’m reaching out with a humble heart to ask for your help as I face one of the most important battles of my life.

I’ve been living with polycystic kidney disease (PKD)—an incurable genetic condition that causes cysts to grow on my kidneys, slowly damaging them over time. It’s something I’ve managed for most of my life, but now, my kidney function has declined to the point where I need a transplant to survive.

Right now, I’m doing everything I can to receive a kidney transplant before needing dialysis. This is known as a pre-emptive transplant, and it offers the best possible outcome- physically, emotionally, and medically. Dialysis, while lifesaving, is incredibly taxing on the body and can significantly affect quality of life. Avoiding it means a smoother recovery and a much better chance at returning to a healthy, full life. But this journey comes with a heavy financial burden. The costs are more than I can manage alone—hospital bills, testing, surgery, anti-rejection medications, travel, time off work…it all adds up quickly.

That’s why I’m asking for your support. I’m trying to raise TTD 550,000 to help cover:

• Dialysis fistula surgery (estimated at TTD 30,000)
• Pre-transplant testing and evaluations (estimated at TTD 40,000)
• The transplant surgery itself (TTD 450,000)
• Recovery costs and time away from work (estimated at TTD 60,000)

For those who prefer to send the funds to me directly, my info is as follows:

Anything you can give- whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this page- means the world to me. Your kindness will not only help me avoid dialysis, but also give me the chance to move forward with hope, strength, and the chance to truly live again.

Thank you for being part of my journey.

With love and gratitude,
Natalia

Every prayer, every share, and every dollar is a lifeline on my journey to healing.
