Aid Nichole Sylvester's Journey to Health
Donation protected
My wife, Nichole Sylvester, has had some medical issues which turned into a terrible situation almost immediately upon arrival at the hospital. She had to undergo a very life-changing operation that we, nor I, don't think anyone would be ready for.
The funds raised will help with the very expensive supplies needed to help her along the way. The bags and the seals as well as all the other supplies that are required and so far eere having a time due to the staples its almost impossible to create a seal so they are having to be changed even more frequently than normal. They told us that it should be changed every 3 to 5 days. Yeah we'll if t h at was the case she would be in a bad way. Right now its maybe every other day if we're lucky. We are really hoping that after the removal of the staples it gets a little better. The prayers have helped and I love everyone of yall who have helped out and we couldn't ask for a better support group. We are doing the best we can and with yalls help its actually looking like we may have hope. We also pausing our working on the house for now even tho we shouldn't its just not possible at this time with everything else and the home health care people also told her yesterday that she can not drive or return to work until they release her and as long as she is still in pain they won't do it. We were also kind of hoping the pain would be just about gone by now so we are really praying hard that there isn't something else wrong or that something has happened so we are going to the surgeon on Tuesday to find out hopefully . Again thank you for all your help and anything helps .
She had to have a section of her large intestine removed and a piece of her colon. She has diverticulitis, and it then started to progress and formed an abscess which ruptured. When it did, it caused solid waste to leak out into her stomach cavity. So they told us she will have to be on a colostomy bag after the operation for a minimum of 6 months.
We were not at all ready for missing this week of work as well as what is to come. I can't leave her side to go to work as I have to be with her to help her because it is not her issue; it's our issue. If anyone could understand or know how terrible it is for me to sit and fill out this like I'm almost begging for help, this is like a hard thing to do, but I have weighed our options, and at this point, I don't know what else to do. This really sucks, and I know the way the economy is right now. We will accept the help, but if you can't, we also understand. We will even accept prayers because we can never have too many prayers; they help so much as well.
Thank you for reading this and taking your time to help. God bless you.
