Hello my name is PAOLA I am 60 years old, I have a pituitary adenoma located in the centre of my brain which causes me so many problems, including my eyesight. I should have an operation but unfortunately I don't have the financial means because at this age no one wants you to work and also because I wouldn't be able to given my very poor health. In addition to this I have had a malignant melanoma operated on three times, an operation on my knee for the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus, I walk with crutches and I fell down the stairs breaking three ribs, in the other knee I have a cartilage tear with crazy pain, I have a large lump in my breast, herniated discs in my spine and high blood pressure. I feel a lot of pain both physically and psychologically, I would need to have check-ups but unfortunately I have to give up because of financial problems. I ask all of you good-hearted people for help in overcoming these enormous difficulties. Thank you all for your support.
