Aid for Bridgette's Medical and Recovery Needs
Donation protected
My name is Sandra and I'm Bridgette's older sister. I'm raising these funds on behalf of Bridgette and Chris. Bridgette was admitted to U of M Ann Arbor last week.
In June, Bridgette's health had started to decline. She was having tingling in her feet and legs; not soon after that started, it was moving its way up her body to her hands and arms. Then her eyesight started to decline as well as her weight. She could no longer care for herself without the help of Chris. What seemed like basic body functions she couldn't do. She had basically become paralyzed and needed support to even move. She had many ER visits and still no answers as to what was happening to her. After what seemed like a battle her body was quickly losing, she is currently admitted at U of M where Chris is with her 24/7 helping care for her. The past couple of months they've had to take a lot of time off work due to her health declining so rapidly. I'm setting up this fundraiser to help with their medical expenses that will be coming in and for her after care in a rehabilitation long-term care center once she is able to be discharged.
‼️UPDATE: WE ARE BACK TO SQUARE 1. The doctors came in and said she tested negative for Porphyria. So the testing will start again and her current treatment will stop. ‼️
