Hello All!
I'm writing this for my mother Norma Crawford, most of my life I've seen my mother suffer in pain and go through many challenges in her life she has always been a Warrior and has never stopped fighting! My mother has suffered severe migraines since she was 5 years old, then she was diagnosed with crohn's disease in 2007($6000 each infusion) A year later was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and the past 3 years have been the worst .
3 or 4 years ago she went blind in her left eye and they said it was optic neuritis, She did gain her vision after 2 months. She is living with her parents because she's unable to care for herself right now. My mother has lost so many jobs all due to her health issues.
To give a little more history on what she's been going through; my mother's been to hospitals over 200 times and she has been admitted several times for weeks at a time. Currently she’s going through several symptoms: she has a large lipoma on the back of her neck, she's dealing with more vision problems double vision and pain behind her eyes. Vertigo, electric shocks through her face and neck sometimes. She gets constant numbness and tingling in her hands, arms, legs and feet. She has had several falls, the most recent fall she broke her left leg and severely sprained her right ankle. She has daily severe fatigue and finds it is hard to swallow food and water. Suffers from insomnia, sensitivity to hot & cold.
Lately she has been having a hard time thinking of words, has memory loss and has slurred speech. Her anxiety and depression has gotten worse. She gets tremors in her limbs and muscle spasms, with muscle paralysis. It is now hard to walk for her or keep her balance, and has problems with coordination.
In the past 6 months she's gained 60 pounds. She suffers from urine (Intercystial cystitis), bowel issues and pain throughout her entire body.
Over the next few weeks she will be seeing several different specialists and having testing done for multiple sclerosis. She's already had a spinal tap and the optic neuritis so now we are going to do more in depth testing and MRI.
I'm graciously asking for help for my mother because she is going to need it for the next few months to be able to pay medical bills, get medications, her cell phone, and car payment so that her car does not get repossessed. I really would be grateful to get assistance for her in raising these funds so that she can continue paying on her bills and can focus more on her diagnosis and treatment so she can get healthy again, go back to work and enjoy her future grandbaby. Thank you all this would be an answer to my prayers.
