Lucia, a 29-year-old university graduate, suffers from pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) — a rare and life-threatening lung disease that causes severe shortness of breath and heart strain. She was once active and full of dreams, but now even walking a few steps leaves her gasping for air.
Her doctors prescribed a specialized inhaled and oral therapy that can ease her symptoms and prolong her life. However, the combined treatment costs over $4,000 per month, a price far out of reach for her family.
Lucia dreams of pursuing a career in education and contributing to her community, but her illness and financial hardship are holding her back. With your support, she can access the life-saving medications she urgently needs.
