My name is Natalia Ventura, and I never imagined I’d be living through the worst nightmare of my life, but here I am, fighting for survival every day. I’m a single mother, struggling with disabilities that have made it impossible for me to work. After being denied SSI benefits, I now have to start the grueling process all over again. The weight of this situation feels unbearable, but what breaks my heart even more is the thought of my one-year-old daughter depending on me during this time of immense hardship.
As if my own struggles weren’t enough, my dear mother was recently diagnosed with cancer. She had to undergo surgery to remove one of her kidneys, and now she needs ongoing treatment, transportation, and a safe place to live. But with my current situation, I can’t even afford to help her. It devastates me that I’m unable to provide the support she needs during this terrifying time.
We’re two months behind on rent, and I’m struggling just to put food on the table and buy basic necessities for my daughter. Every bill feels like a mountain I can’t climb, and I feel like I’m failing the two people who need me most: my mother and my baby girl.
I’m reaching out because I’ve exhausted all other options, and I’m desperate for help. Your generosity could make the difference between sinking and surviving. I can provide evidence of my current situation to those willing to help. Please consider donating to help us stay afloat, provide the care my mother desperately needs, and give my daughter the chance at a stable life. Every little bit count, and from the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your kindness and support.
