Dawn Livigne's Hospitalization

Hello all! My name is Rin, and I am Dawn's daughter. Two weeks ago she was hospitalized with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological condition in which the immune system attacks the nerves. This condition has onset as a result of a brief COVID-19 infection. She remains in the ICU at Beverly Hospital for time being so she can receive round-the-clock care.

We are still waiting for the disease to progress to get an idea of what her recovery will look like - Guillain-Barré is a quickly evolving and hard to understand disease. We do know that no matter what, it will be a lengthy process. After hospitalization, it can take years to fully recover from its neurological effects like weakness, numbness, paralysis, etc.

I am fundraising to better manage the hospital bills and provide a bit of relief for my mom so that she can focus on recovering and fighting this disease. Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you,

Rin + Family
