Hello, my name is Bridney Washington. Four years ago, I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis, a condition that has profoundly impacted my daily life. Despite undergoing numerous treatments including radiofrequency ablation, physical therapy, and chiropractic care, I continue to live with excruciating pain every day. This pain significantly limits my mobility and ability to perform basic activities like walking, running, working out, and even bending. It's a relentless struggle that affects every aspect of my life.

My condition has also caused severe muscle spasms, stiffness, and constant aching, making it impossible for me to work. Currently, I rely on a single disability check each month, but my goal is to return to a normal, active life. I wish to work again, go back to school, and enjoy a life free from pain.

Recently, I consulted with Dr. Deuk at the Deuk Spine Institute, who offers a potential solution through surgery. However, the out-of-pocket cost for this surgery is estimated at $28,000, with an additional $2,000 required for travel expenses, totaling $30,000 dollars.

I am reaching out for help through this Give A Hand page. Any contribution to assist with these expenses would be immensely appreciated and will help me move towards a pain-free and functional life. Thank you for considering my story and for any support you can provide.
