Heart pump (LVAD) for Jessica
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Jessica. I was born with heart problems. In 2017, I was hospitalized 8 times with heart failure and kidney failure. My heart is enlarged and starting to get weak and stiff. In November. I was worked up for a transplant or a heart pump. I qualified for the LVAD pump - Left Ventricle Assisted Device. This Device will help circulate the blood from the left ventricle to the aorta. Which will help the heart pump better and a better qualility of life for me. This is a bridge to a transplant. I'll be in the hospital 3-4 weeks. My surgery is schedule for January 12, 2018. Since I'm disable and rely on my parents. I'm asking for any donation to help during this diffcult time.
