Help with my mom's hospital bills

Donation protected

Friends and Family,

We are raising money to cover my mom's hospital bills. Though her journey is far from over, she has been in the ICU for 3 weeks now, with more to come. What we know so far is that the amount we will be expected to pay out of pocket (maximum) will be around $3,500. Therefore, we are attempting to raise $5,000, to account for other at-home care expenses. At this point, there is irreversible damage to her lungs, and at-home care would require oxygen tanks, etc. (we don't yet know all that at-home care will entail, just that if she makes it through this, it won't be easy).

Asking for money at this point, when we still don't know what will happen, feels pre-emptive... and selfish. As my dad has said, "I haven't brought it up yet, because I can't put a price tag on your mom's life."

Many of you have asked me, my dad, and my brother how you can help. If you are unable to donate, please do not feel obligated to. We just ask that you share this donation link with friends, family, your church, and other communities. Spread it far and wide and please, please keep praying for my mom.

If you prefer Venmo over Go Fund Me, my Venmo handle is LT-27.

Warmly,

Jim, Lauren, and Ryan Toomey
