Hola, mi nombre es Dariannys Alejos, tengo 13 años . Soy Venezolana le escribo porque necesito recaudar fondos para una prótesis de pierna y cadera, somos de bajos recursos, tengo dos hermanitas pequeñas y mi mamá no puede costear los gastos.
Le voy a contar mi historia… el Día del Niño del año 2018, yo me estaba bañando y me caí, me fracturé el fémur derecho me dijeron que me iban a operar pero en la placa se veía algo extraño y decidieron hacerme una biopsia y dijieron que era una infección, dure 7 meses con antibióticos después me dieron los exámenes y todo salió bien, entonces los doctores me dijeron que me iban operar. Me llevaron para el hospital Pediátrico de Barquisimeto y dure dos meses hospitalizada, pero igual no me querían operar, me hicieron placas y ecos y dijeron que el hueso estaba haciendo cayos, y por eso no me operaron.
Me llevaron para la casa pero quedé en silla de rueda… bueno , así duré meses, y un día en el 2019 me comenzó a crecer el fémur, pero los doctores me comentaron que era normal, que eso era por los cayos, pero yo tenía demasiado dolor, tenían que llevarme para el hospital para colocarme medicamento para el dolor, yo vivo lejos del hospital, la parada de autobús queda a 15 cuadras de mi casa, era difícil ir para allá, pero no aguantaba el dolor.
En el 2020, me hicieron una resonancia y salió que tenía cáncer, una noticia que me me desvato pero con el apoyo de mi familia comencé con las quimioterapia fue muy fuerte, todavía en ese momento seguía en sillas de rueda cada vez me crecía más el tumor, tenían que operarme en Caracas, no teníamos plata ni para el transporte ni la consulta. después de conseguir los recursos, me operaron en el J.M. de los Ríos.
Me hicieron una hemipelvectomía, me quitaron la pierna derecha y parte de la cadera. Regresamos a Barquisimeto, continúe con quimioterapia, terminé mi proceso y vencí el cáncer, gracias a Dios y al apoyo de tantas personas de buen corazón que me ayudaron.
Hoy más que nunca necesito de su gran apoyo colaboración para mi prótesis, quiero caminar sin muletas, continuar con mis estudios y ser profesional! Quiero ser testimonio de fe y esperanza para mis compañeros que continúan luchando contra esta terrible condición.
Agradezco a Fundacion Caly por apoyar y dar seguimiento a estas nobles causas que contribuyen para el crecimiento de de las personas con discapacidad

My name is Dariannys Alejos; I am 13 years old. I am Venezuelan, and I am writing to you because I need to raise funds for a leg and hip prosthesis.We are low-income, I have two little sisters, and my mother cannot afford the costs. I’m going to tell you my story… on Children’s Day 2018, I was taking a shower, and I fell, I fractured my right femur, they told me they were going to operate on me, but something strange looked on the plate, and they decided to do a biopsy. And they said it was an infection
I lasted seven months with antibiotics, then they gave me the tests, and everything went well, then the doctors told me that they were going to operate on me. They took me to the Pediatric Hospital in Barquisimeto, and I was hospitalized for two months, but they still didn’t want to do surgery.
They did X-rays and echoes and said that the bone was making cays, and that’s why they didn’t. They took me home, but I was in a wheelchair… well, I lasted like this for months, and one day in 2019 my femur began to grow. Still, the doctors told me that it was expected, that it was because of the keys, but I had too much pain, and they had to take me to the hospital to give me pain medication
I live far from the hospital, and the bus stop is 15 blocks from my house, it was difficult to go there, but I couldn’t stand the pain. In 2020, they did an MRI and it came out that I had cancer; I was devastated, but with the support of my family, I started chemotherapy, it was very strong; even at that time I was still in a wheelchair, my heart grew more and more tumor, they had to do a surgery on me in Caracas, we had no money for transportation or consultation. after obtaining the resources, they did the surgery on me at the J.M. from the rivers.
They did a hemipelvectomy. They removed my right leg and part of my hip. We returned to Barquisimeto, I continued with chemotherapy, I finished my process, I beat cancer, thanks to God and the support of so many good-hearted people who helped me.
Today more than ever, I need your collaboration support for my prosthesis; I want to walk without crutches, continue my studies and be a professional! I want to be a testimony of faith and hope for my colleagues who continue to fight against this terrible condition.
