Hi,

I am a 77 yr old woman, having had several knee, feet, back, and neck surgeries. I am going blind due to macular degeneration. I am having problems walking now because there are holes in the orthotics.

I fell again today. Thank God that I didn't break an arm/hip. I've broken an arm already. It's very scary and stressful for me. I've tried different organizations and they cannot or will not help.

My daughter is on disability and is barely making enough to pay the rent and food monthly. She helps as much as she can.

Thank you for considering this request. God Bless.

Testimonial

This person has left the following thank you note:

Dear Donors, I am astounded how quickly you responded to my mom's need for orthotics! You are a blessing to her and to me. I do believe that this will help here to walk better and to quit falling down so much. She fell last week, but after a trip to the ER, she was ok. She hit her head and that scares me alot. God Bless each and everyone of you. I plan to become a donor when I can, which I hope is quick. Jesus has worked out so many miracles for me last week and this week. Small miracles and big ones. You are a blessing to my mom! My heart is about to jump out of me for the excitement. Jesus Loves You! And I thank you so very much! Words cannot express my feelings for you. Thank you so very very much! Cindy, Wanda's daughter. I love you all!
