Please help me get attention!

Hello, please spare a few minutes of your time to read my post. Last year of 2020 I was hospitalized due to high blood pressure and dyspnea, later on, they decided to admit me to the hospital due to pneumonia and graves disease. The cardiologist assigned to me asked me to get an echocardiogram / 2DEcho to check my heart and later on it was explained to me that I have "Valvular heart disease, anterior mitral valve prolapse with severe regurgitation" also known as leaky valves. The doctor then assured me that I don't need to worry about it because I don't have Edema or water retention but fast forward after being released from the hospital, I constantly suffered from dyspnea. Air hunger. It felt like I couldn't breathe well, I get tired easily and don't have much energy but I don't get palpitations anymore. The thing is, I feel like this is happening because of stress as well. I'm the breadwinner in the family and I don't get enough sleep because my mom yells almost 24/7 due to post-stroke dementia.

Because I don't feel better, I've decided to get a second opinion from a cardiologist in the Philippine heart center (it's a hospital that specializes in heart problems.) It was then explained to me that the medicines given to me by the first doctor aren't a match for MVP. She placed me on enalapril 10mg and nebivolol 5mg and later on I started feeling a bit better but I still get attacks every now and then. (Especially now because of the grieving. not even a month ago when I unexpectedly lost my dad due to CKD and covid) It was also explained to me that our valves don't regenerate, and because mine has severe regurgitation it means I'm like a ticking Timebomb and would need open-heart surgery and heart valve replacement to make sure I can extend and improve the quality of my life.

I'm considered indigent and can't come up with $25k for the surgery. I understand we all have financial problems because of the pandemic, but whatever help you can give me will be much appreciated. Any amount will do, Prayers, or simply going in and sharing my GoFundMe page will help me a lot.

Thank you, everyone, and much love.
