Hello everyone,

This is something I never imagined I would have to do, and honestly, it is very difficult for me to ask for help. As a single mother, I have always done everything I can to provide for my son on my own. However, after exhausting all of my resources, I am reaching out and humbly asking for support.

My son is currently receiving care through the Children’s Clinic in Tucson and has been diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), anxiety, a mood disorder, a learning disability, and speech delay. His medical care, appointments, evaluations, treatments, and related expenses have placed a significant financial burden on myself since it’s just me and him on here.

I work full-time, but despite my efforts, I do not qualify for AHCCCS because my income exceeds the eligibility limit by approximately $300. Over the past months, I have used all available funds from my credit cards and even depleted my retirement savings in order to cover my son’s medical needs and continue getting him the care he deserves.

Asking for help is not easy for me, and I feel ashamed that I have reached a point where I cannot do this alone. But my son’s health and well-being must come first, and I am doing everything possible to make sure he receives the care and support he needs.

I am also actively looking for a second job, but living in a small town means opportunities are very limited.

Any donation, no matter the amount, would help ease the financial strain of my son’s medical expenses. If anyone would like proof of his diagnoses, appointments, medical bills, or any of the information I have shared, I am more than willing to provide documentation.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read our story. Your support, prayers, shares, and kindness mean more to us than words can express.

Thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide.

With gratitude,
