Dear friends of Anita and compassionate community members-- We are reaching out to you today to rally support for Anita Skocz, a remarkable individual who has defied the odds and overcome tremendous challenges throughout her life. Anita, now 71 years old, has been living with quadriplegia since 1978, a condition that has left her dependent on others for daily care and assistance. Despite the grim prognosis she received from doctors, Anita has not only surpassed their expectations but has also maintained a fierce determination to maintain her independence and avoid being confined to a nursing home. The Challenge: Anita faces significant obstacles as she strives to maintain her quality of life. The existing social security benefits she receives do not cover the full cost of the specialized in-home care she requires to live comfortably and safely. While nursing homes are an option, they lack the necessary resources and expertise to adequately accommodate her specific needs. Thus, Anita is faced with a difficult choice: compromising her independence and well-being by moving to a nursing home or finding a way to continue living in the familiar surroundings of her own home. Anita's Journey: Anita's courageous journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. Against all odds, she has fought relentlessly, surpassing the life expectancy predicted by doctors decades ago. Her strong will and indomitable spirit have been the driving force behind her achievements. But as she nears her 72nd birthday, her financial resources are dwindling, and the burden of expenses for in-home care is becoming increasingly difficult to manage. We believe that every individual, regardless of their physical limitations, deserves the right to maintain their independence and live with dignity. Our aim is to raise funds to support Anita's quest to continue receiving the level of care she has become accustomed to. By rallying together as a community, we can ensure that Anita remains in the comfort of her own home, surrounded by the familiar faces and cherished memories that bring her solace. Your generous contribution will help cover the costs of Anita's in-home care, which includes replacing any specialized medical equipment that may fail and personal care attendants. With your support, we can provide Anita with the necessary resources to live a fulfilling life, allowing her to focus on her passions and maintain her cherished independence. We understand that not everyone may be in a position to donate, but your assistance in spreading the word about this campaign would be invaluable. Together, we can create a ripple effect of compassion and empathy, reaching individuals who may resonate with Anita's story and be willing to extend a helping hand. Anita's unwavering determination, resilience, and refusal to let her disability define her life have inspired us all. Let us come together as a community and make a meaningful impact in Anita's life. Your contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in ensuring Anita can continue to receive the care she needs while maintaining her independence. Thank you for your generosity and for standing with Anita in her pursuit of a life well-lived. -- friends of Anita Note: All funds raised will be directly allocated to cover Anita Skocz's in-home care expenses. Regular updates will be shared to keep donors informed about Anita's progress and how their support is making a tangible difference in her life.
