Lisa Reardon- Cellulitis survivor

Donation protected
Lisa has been battling a serious bacterial infection for 2 years . Cellulitis is a form of flesh eating disease, she started experiencing sores on her arms,hands and legs that were very painful. Even though she was being treated and also was admitted to the hospital many times, the infection was not going away, it was getting worse!. The doctors diagnosed her with Cellulitis , it's a flesh eating disease caused by a bacterial infection. The doctors performed many skin graphs , they would take healthy skin from her back and stomach which is extremely painful and would place the healthy skin on the infected area's on her body, that were completely being eaten away to the bone from the bacteria. Unfortunately her body wasn't healthy enough and was rejecting the skin graphs. Th infection was very serious and doctors warned Lisa and her family that there was a good chance she would have to have her infected legs amputated to save her life because the infection was quickly spreading through out her body.   That day quickly came and both of her legs were amputated. After the surgery she fell into coma and she was on life support, her family was completely devastated, no one knew if she was going to pull through. But she did, she's a fighter! She's also a mother to two incredible children and she's been fighting for them!. Lisa is the bravest person that we know, she had to endure more painful surgeries after the amputation. She had to completely learn how to take care of herself without having legs but it hasn't been easy, there are certain necessities

she needs that would make her life comfortable but financially she is not able to afford it. She needs a vehicle that comes with a wheel chair lift, so her family can take her to her weekly doctors appointments. At the moment she gets lifted into cars, which can be painful since her amputation is not completly healed. She also needs a stair lift to be installed into her home . She has to rely on family to carry her upstairs so she's able to use the shower and toilet. She needs a hospital bed so she can be more comfortable and to make it easier to get out of bed. She needs a ramp to get into her
home. Her family is trying their best to help her but it's very hard ,both of her parents are ill and are on a low income.. Any help big or small will be appreciated !.. Please help Lisa, she's been through so many difficult challenges that no one should have to go through!
