Hi, I'm Vi, I'm a qualified mechanic from Russia, I repair MINI and BMW engines. I want to be honest with you about what has been happening in my life recently. For years, my main job was working as a mechanic. I loved it. I enjoyed fixing things with my hands, solving problems, and spending long days in the garage. It wasn't just a job it was a huge part of who I am.
Over the past years, my health started changing. What began as occasional pain slowly turned into something much more serious. After many doctor visits, tests, and MRI scans, I was diagnosed with significant problems in my cervical spine, including spinal canal stenosis and spinal cord compression. Because of this, I had to stop working in the garage and avoid heavy physical activity while I continue treatment and consultations with specialists.
Right now I spend most of my time at home, working from my computer and trying to rebuild my life around new limitations. Some days are good. Some days are difficult. But I am doing my best to stay positive and keep moving forward. Unfortunately, medical appointments, scans, medications, and specialist consultations are expensive. I don't have medical insurance, and the financial pressure has become overwhelming. At the same time, being unable to do my regular work has made things even harder.
If you enjoy my streams, conversations, company, or simply want to support someone who is fighting through a difficult chapter of life, any tip means more than you can imagine. Every contribution helps me cover medical expenses, continue treatment, and stay focused on recovery instead of worrying about how I will pay the next bill.
Thank you for being here. Your support, kindness, and presence help me more than you know. P.S. If you are a neurosurgeon, please let me know!
