Donation protected
This is so hard for me to write and ask for help but here it goes. My daughter Sophia was hospitalized on April 19 2021 and from that point everything went down hill. She was admitted into the hospital from having two bites on her legs that was MRSA the next day we got her blood work, cultures, etc. and found out she also had Norovirus as well. Sophia has autism so taking meds. Can be next to impossible. So leaving the hospital wasn’t a option after 3 days $17,000 later I was juggling how I was going to figure it all out. We was home for two days we woke up that morning and Sophia had a huge knot at the base of her neck. We all was confused but I immediately made a dr app. that day. Her doctor knew at that moment it was her thyroid. We went yet again for blood work and a ultra sound. Two days later her doctor is calling me at 8pm to tell me something wasn’t right. So now the worry and sadness really takes over!!!! We don’t have insurance what will we do!!!! We now had to see specialist. She was denied by two different specialist because she had no insurance. So fast forward we found a dr. We go in and Sophia needs emergency surgery and she’s not stable enough to have surgery. So she’s on methimazole which helps lower the amount of hormones produced by the body. Atenolol to help high blood pressure help prevent heart attacks. Her heart rate is out of control and without both being stable she’s can’t have surgery. So 3 weeks from now she needs to have surgery. The doctors are confident that she will be ready and stable. We have tried to get Sophia help through charity’s even the hospital, but No Luck!!! Everything effect Sophia so much different than other kids everything is that much harder. We now have to keep Sophia from doing all the things she loves to do. Stop her from eating and drinking all the things she loves. All to keep her heart rate regulated!!!! please help her!!!!! please pray for her!!!! She has a long road ahead of her with Half of her thyroid has to be taken out and hoping that cancer is not in her future. Then hoping that the other part of her thyroid will work correctly for her so she doesn’t have to take medicine for the rest of her life. She’s my best friend the love of my life and the most giving little girl I know! Without y’all’s help we don’t know what we will do!
