I need some help.
magicanuniverse‌:
So a few days ago, my sister was admitted to the hospital complaining about a headache. It was so bad she was in tears. I didn’t know anything about this until 3 to midnight on Tuesday, my younger sister called. Immediately I knew something was wrong; Sam doesn’t call me. Ever. We text.
So, when I found out my sister had been admitted, due to a mild stroke, I panicked. After that? She was found to have an aneurysm. At the time they tested it, it wasn’t bleeding. A few more tests later, it was bleeding.
And every day she’s just gotten worse and worse. Today, I found out she’s in critical condition.She’s in a medical coma, she can’t breathe on her own, it’s completely by a machine. She’s paralyzed by the neck down and is getting no oxygen naturally to her blood.
They want to put her in surgery to try and remove the aneurysm. It was scheduled for Monday before her oxygen got so low. Now, it’s for Wednesday. If her oxygen doesn’t rise again, she’s left a vegetable, living off the machine’s support only.
Worse still, she has a 3 year old. A three year old that was born with Kidneys that where to small and he ended up having several surgeries as a new born.
I need to get to Denver. I’m going to wait until after Wednesday to hear what they’re going to do. If they do the surgery, I’m going to fly out there. But I need some help paying for it. Any donation is seriously helpful. You can send me anything to [email protected]
Thanks in advance, even if all you do is pray for her life. Wish us luck.
UPDATE:
My sister is still in the ICU. Her oxygen is painfully slowly climbing, but it’s still not enough. She was supposed to have surgery today. The good news, her Aneurysm has not bled. But she’s been discovered to have blood in her spinal fluid. We don’t know what caused that at all, but they’re not focusing on that.
She now has Pneumonia. Her body is just to weak to fight off the infection and last night they gave her some inhalant medication to help fight it off.
My plan was to go up Saturday, but that was only if she had her surgery. So now, I either wait for the news that she’s stable enough to go under the knife…
Or that she’s passed away and I’m going up for a funeral.
Monica and I are just… waiting. Every, single, fucking day is just torture to my psyche but the MOMENT I know she’s …in the situation as the one or the other above, I’m booking our flight.
If anyone has any more money that they’d like to donate, please do. I’m still holding onto it, and just… playing the waiting game. But I plan to be gone with Moni for a week- unless they need me longer.
Remember; [email protected] It’s not typo’d I promise.
