Hope for Kali: Recovery from Massive Stroke
Beschermde donatie
On Tuesday, March 26th, our beautiful, precious Kali suffered massive, multiple strokes followed by intracerebral hemorrhaging. Her injuries are devastating and she remains in critical condition on life support in ICU. This past week, she went through 4 emergency brain surgeries within 36 hours including the removal of the right side of her skull to accommodate brain swelling. She is now also fighting pneumonia and extreme measures were taken to lower a very high fever which can cause additional brain injury. Like a warrior, she is fighting for her life every hour, although her deficits from her stroke remain unknown.
Kali is very self reliant and has never asked anyone for anything in the course of her young life. With her whole future ahead of her, she was working towards her Masters in English Literature at USF and paying her own way by also working full time as a server. Like 44M other Americans, Kali did not have adequate health insurance and her medical bills are already mounting with no end in sight. Her family was told yesterday by hospital staff that she will not qualify for the extensive level of rehabilitative care she needs due to her being self pay and that her healing and rehabilitation will likely be needed for several years, if not the rest of her life. Kali has a loving family who will do whatever is in their power to give her hope of regaining her life, and she has a wonderful network of friends, but her current and future medical and emotional needs will be so tremendous that even all together there is not enough resources. We are asking for donations to help with these costs and give Kali hope to heal with the proper care.
If you have had the pleasure of knowing Kali in any capacity, you know how very special she is and how giving and loving she is. She is an avid reader, loves to learn, and embraces everyone with open arms. She is known as a fighter for good causes and human rights and volunteers her time for many local nonprofits. She loves animals and has 2 sweet dogs that miss her terribly. She is a kind, generous, good, beautiful soul and the world needs her in it.
Even a small donation will help and any amount is so appreciated. Please continue to send your prayers and loving thoughts to our Kali during this difficult time, even if you can not donate. We are sharing your stories with her everyday and words of encouragement and we believe with all our heart she is hearing and feeling your love and support. She has been our bright and beautiful angel since the day she was born and we all are dedicated to seeing her sweet smile and hearing her amazing laugh again soon. Please help us.
We will be posting updates as much as possible and and also have a Facebook page for updates as well:
