Heart for Barb
This is Barb a loving and caring Mother, Wife, Daughter, and Grandmother of 6. Barb is the kind of person who would do anything and everything she could for anyone in need. It wouldn't matter where she was or what she was doing if you needed her she would come. She has a big heart and full of life. Barb was diagnosed with congested heart failure on October 18th 2015 at the age of 55 due to an unknown virus. Our family didn't know what to think or expect with learning about the news. Further test reveled her heart only beats 10-20 when it should be 60 beats. For 5 months Barb had to wear a defibrillating vest and when her heart still didn't improve on March 18th 2016 Barb had surgery to have a pacemaker defibrillator put in. It's a been a long road and through it all Barb my Mother has been the bravest person and has held her head up high with nothing but postive thinking and hopes. She still laughs and smiles and spends every moment with her dear ones. Unfortunately more news came about that Barb's heart is not getting any stronger even with the pacemaker. Doctors have explained she will more then likely need a pump and a heart transplant and may have to go to Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. Not only that , my mom also has( Rh negative) blood type which is rare ... what I am asking is for any donation will be very much appreciated to go towards medical expenses trips to Cleveland along with postive thoughts and prayers. Thank you
