Help support Valerie and her family during this time .
Donation protected
Our loving mother , sister , grandma, cousin & friend Valerie suffered from a major heart attack Sunday December 22nd, just 3 days before Christmas.
Valerie literally died in the ER and was revived after CPR and subsequently placed on ECMO. Her heart attack was caused by massive pulmonary emboli completely filling her left lung & 30% of her right lung. They performed a pulmonary embolectomy and were able to remove most of the clots that made her heart give out after trying to pump blood through the massive blockages. Her heart is functioning a tiny bit better, but she remains on complete life support via ECMO. Today she was placed on dialysis in addition to other life sustaining measures. Valerie has already been on FMLA from work awaiting knee replacement surgery in January. Any donations would be appreciated to help her children bear the increased financial burden while also trying to sustain a happy healthy mindset as their mother recovers in the hospital.
