Chip in for Kathys Recovery

Donation protected
My mom, Kathy Fruchey, had a stroke on May 24, 2018 the type of stroke she had was called a Hemorrhagic stroke meaning she had bleeding on the brain. While waiting to go back and get a CTA scan while in the ER she ended up having a seizure. Her overall health was declining fast so they rushed her back for surgery to relieve pressure on her brain, and attempt to stop the bleed. The surgery went well, but she was in for a long recovery. She ended up staying in the ICU for 14 days, 7 days physical therapy in patient, back to the hospital for an infection for an additional 6 day stay, and 28 days of IV antibiotics and wound care. While in the ICU she got pneumonia, among a handful of other obstacles that she fought through. Her vocal cords are currently damaged due to the breathing tube that she had in for 10 days. She has various doctor appointments to go to and will for the foreseeable future. Her job is commission based so there is no money coming in at the moment. My family is understandably struggling to keep up with bills. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
