Personal message

I was adopted as a baby by 2 wonderful parents.

 
Unfortunately my adopted parents tried to conceive without any luck for 8 years. My mom had health issues since I can remember. She isn't able to work due to het medical conditions. 
 
My dad has been the breadwinner since the day they got married. They got by with his teacher salary. My mom has had about 45 surgeries in the past 31 years of my existence. My dad is drowning in medical debt and has to retire in April 2024.
 
This is a massive concern for my dad as my mom has to undergo 2 very important surgeries this year, but his pension allowance per month can't even cover my mom's medical aid and chronic medicine per month.  
 
My mom suffers from a few medical conditions such as arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia. 
 
In the 8 years they have tried to conceive, my mom had several injuries to her ovaries and other parts. She has been on hormonal treatment since 1999. My mom is barely surviving purely on heavy pain medication including morphine. 
 
My wish is for a lump sum for them just to survive, being able to pay the necessary medical bills for her to get by without being in constant pain. The lump sum will be divided into payments being hamded over to them on a monthly basis to cover the cost of my mom's medical bills per month. 
 
My own mother could only stay about an hour at my own wedding due to too much pain, where she can barely sit or stand for long periods of time. 
 
They have given me everything they possibly could and for once I would love to give back to them.

struggles, with 45 surgeries in my lifetime, mean she can't work. My dad, the sole earner, faces mounting medical debts and has to retire soon. He's worried as my mom needs crucial surgeries, but his pension won't cover her medical expenses. She battles multiple painful conditions and relies heavily on medication. I wish to provide them with a lump sum to help cover ongoing medical costs, ensuring they can live without constant financial strain. They've sacrificed a lot for me, and I want to give back to ease their burden.
