Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I’m creating this fundraiser on behalf of my aunt, Mindy Spitler Siroki, who is going through an incredibly challenging time and needs our help.
My aunt has been dealing with serious health issues for several years. Some doctors believe she may have multiple sclerosis (MS), while others think a mass on her brain could be the result of past trauma. Regardless of the exact diagnosis, her condition has severely impacted her mobility and quality of life.
She recently went through a painful breakup after 18 years in a relationship that involved awful emotional and physical abuse. Now, as she tries to rebuild her life, one of her biggest struggles is simply getting around. She has no reliable transportation to get to the grocery store, attend medical appointments, or take care of daily needs.
More than anything, she wants to regain a sense of freedom and dignity—especially so she can attend her grandchildren’s baseball games and be part of their lives again. Unfortunately, she needs a van that can be modified to accommodate her condition, and that kind of vehicle is expensive.
Because she’s not comfortable asking for help herself, I offered to step in and do this for her. She’s one of the strongest people I know, and I truly believe she deserves a chance at independence, healing, and hope.
If you’re able to contribute, no matter the amount, it would mean so much. And if you can’t give right now, sharing this campaign would also be a huge help. Thank you for taking the time to read her story and for supporting someone who means the world to me.
With gratitude,
Mackenzie Spitler
