Campaign Title: Mom's Medical
Description: Once in a lifetime, you meet an angel that brightens up the room. For me, this person is my mother, and she is my role model. I love my mom. She is the youngest of four children, and although she never went to college, she instilled this value on the importance of education and ambition that I can do anything I set my mind to. Now, I’m setting my mind to achieving a successful GoFundMe campaign to pay for my loving mother’s medical care.

My mother suffers from hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). This is a disorder of the blood vessels. As blood is the life source of the body, it can affect any aspect of our physiology. Blood vessels malformations can occur in the brain causing brain aneurysms
