Emily’s battle with Stevens Johnson syndrome (SJS)

On Monday September 12th Emily was taken to the hospital as she wasn’t feeling well.. not knowing what was going on but knowing something wasn’t right.

When arriving at the hospital her symptoms persisted and seemed to be getting severely worse. She was diagnosed with Steven Johnson’s syndrome. A very rare reaction that was caused by a medication she was prescribed. She was then air lifted to a Chicago hospital where they are better equipped to deal with this Syndrome and have specialist for what she is going through. She will be there for the unforeseen future and is currently in the ICU Burn unit.

Emily is also a single, hardworking mom who was also starting a new job on the same day this all transpired. The financial burden is the last thing she needs to worry about at this time. We ask if you can donate in any way or even share this so it gets to as many people as possible we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
