Caring For Cassie
Donation protected
Something is wrong with Cassandra and has been for a very long time. She has been fighting this battle since she was 12 years old. However due to the lack of health insurance and finances she has been unable to get the care that she needs.
Now things have gotten serious...
On 5/1/15 Cassandra was rushed into the emergency room. She was unable to walk straight, slurred speech, unable to interact coherently and had short term memory loss. A CAT scan was done of Cassie's head showing swelling in the pituitary gland (her brain), and she was admitted into the hospital overnight. 6 restless days later 18 blood test, 3 MRI's, and 1 MRA. Cassandra has been diagnosed with a micro brain tumor and severe migraines. The tumor does not need surgery at the moment (some good news in the darkness) but it does need to be monitored for growth. She needs to see a team of specialists to get her on the road to full recovery and to answer many other questions. Those specialists include (according to the doctor from E.R)
1 . neurologist
2. endochronologist
3. Nuero opthamologist
4. Rheumatologist
5. (If Circumstances change) Neuro Surgeon
Cassandra is an aspiring 3D digital animator and was currently working as a full time student,on her dream to become one. She was also a part-time cake decorator making what little money she could to help pay her way through college. She absolutely loved doing both and misses every minute that she is unable to learn and create art. Unfortunately due to this health issue, she can not drive, work or go to school until a doctor says she is ok.
Cassandra is now hypersensitive to sound and light and often has to wear ear plugs and sunglasses just to be comfortable, and every now and then still has trouble walking/balancing on her own. she is currently taking medication that helps her a bit but nothing is solved.
Please donate whatever you can, any amount is a true blessing and will be appreciated more than anything!
And if you can't donate please share Cassandra's Go Fund Me link in hopes that others may be able to.
We need to get her to these specialists as soon as possible and with your help we can take care of Cassie and get her back to her normal self!
