Please pray for funding for rehabilitation in Japan, for which I need at least $35k. I love the USA, and was proudly born here in our bicentennial year, but I must go where there is a cure. Many thanks and prayers are coming to those who are generous here with prayers and financial support.
I’m a lifelong patient, surviving high doses of antibiotics before I was big enough to undergo biuretral valve reimplantation before turning three, The next big hurdle was dealing with brain injury from the childhood vaccination schedule: Mesial Temporal Sclerosis in Broca’s Area. This eventuality required brain surgery at age 16 to bring my focal seizures under control. In between these major surgeries, I had some minor ones, too, including an adenoidectomy, rhinoplasty (seizure-injury) and a few minor procedures.
Blessed to be free of seizures after brain surgery, I successfully got a college degree, able to work a few years before my pain levels drastically increased. This was due to scar tissue expansion in my brain and pre-op orthodontic work preparing for medically-necessary maxillofacial reconstruction. Having only two teeth that met each other made eating extremely difficult.
I’d planned to prepare for this procedure shortly after college, but I had to postpone preparations, needing to work very hard to keep my job after graduating in May of 2001. In 2006, the overwhelming pain endured before my jaw reconstruction made maintaining employment impossible, most especially after reasonable accommodations were denied, causing me to lose my job.
I was approved for disability income, but the stress had triggered some additional medical conditions, including multiple spine conditions, Eczema, Fibromyalgia, CFS, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis along with an assortment of orthopedic, osteopathic, gynecological, immunological and gastrointestinal conditions.
After these conditions were effectively managed, I got approval to return to work, even after the stress I faced when my house was struck by lightning and burned down in the Summer of 2019. With COVID-19 vaccination mandates, I knew that most employers required vaccinations, so I complied. My Pfizer Vax injury in 2021 led me back to a very poor state of health, losing my job due to vaccine-induced interstitial lung disease and the development of more autoimmune diseases, including Seborrheic Dermatitis and Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome.
Working or not, I was able to continue my neuroscience studies. I was blessed to increase my knowledge of various medical specialties and continued my efforts to help stand up for the rights of the disabled and parents of disabled children. But I was especially blessed to meet so many medical professionals in online communities, who also wanted to stand up for the rights of patients to opt out of vaccines. Ever since, I’ve helped newly Vax Injured patients to understand their injuries, what medical professionals they should see, and where they can meet people with similar problems.
Here are some of the many conditions I suffer from: Vaccine-Induced Interstitial Lung Disease, Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome, Seborrheic Dermatitis, Shingles (twice), Fibromyalgia, Migraine, Tension Headache, Cluster Headache, Non-Traumatic Brain Injury, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Post-Seizure Disorder, Organic Brain Syndrome, Myofacial Pain Syndrome, Spinal Segmentation Syndrome, Bilateral Uretral Valve Reimplantation, Somatopsychic Disorder, Small Fiber Sensory Neuropathy, ADHD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Cyclothymia, Broca’s Dysphasia, Rhinoplasty (seizure injury) Idiopathic Rotary Scoliosis, Reverse Cervical Curve/Cervical Spondylosis/Torticollis/Disc Bulge (seizure injury), L5-Spondylolisthesis, Spina Bifida Occulta, Cervical Intervertebral Disc Degeneration, Brachial Neuritis, L5-6 Left Paramedian Disk Extrusion, C6-7 Subligamentous Disk Bulge (spinal injuries from seizures), Multiple Allergies (naproxen, penicillin, gold, latex, cane sugar, yeast, green beans, wheat, tomatoes, potatoes, garlic, grapes, cabbage, almonds, parsley, spinach, apricots, pumpkin, plum, peaches, pears, raspberries, cherries, lemon, strawberries, apple, paprika), and some conditions that I’m forgetting here.
I’m blessed to be alive and have always preferred serving others, so asking for help has required a lot of humility! I’m in need of the cost of treatment in and transportation to and from Japan. I’m so grateful for your help through prayer and financial support!
