Natalia also explained her condition, diastrophic dysplasia, which she says will likely require multiple surgeries.
The Ukrainian orphan expects to need surgery on her legs and spine, which she says will cost an excess of $500,000 and claims her specialist doesn’t accept her medical insurance.
“I would like to make enough to at least put a deposit on my own place and start a business to start earning some money so I can start saving for this expensive treatment, however if I reach over my goal I will be able to put that towards the treatment I require to give me a better chance at getting enough to cover it,” Natalia wrote.
Natalia set a goal for $20,000 and has raised nearly $1,500 in less than a day. She also linked to the fundraiser in her new TikTok profile, on which she has over 12,000 followers.
