In Support of Alysia
Hello, family and friends!
Alysia needs our help right now. For the past year, she has struggled with increased complications from ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), a serious neurological-lymphatic condition affecting the head, spine, and lymphatic system. It causes profound exhaustion that does not improve with rest, and even simple physical or mental activity can significantly worsen symptoms. Alysia is currently housebound and unable to work consistently.
Over the next few months, the need is especially urgent. As she continues debilitating treatments, Alysia is facing immediate challenges with food, transportation, and basic living expenses. Financial support is critical to help her remain in her apartment, keep food available that she can safely eat, and continue getting to the care she needs. Her illness has also caused severe food allergies and a highly restrictive diet, making shopping and preparing safe, nourishing meals incredibly difficult. This is where we can make a real difference. Safe meals, grocery or meal-delivery gift cards, financial contributions, and rides to treatment can help stabilize things during this critical period and allow Alysia to focus her limited energy on her care.Β
If you are able to help, please know that support right now is not simply appreciated. It is deeply needed.
