Help Donna Heal: Time Off for Caregiver
Donation protected
Hello to our family and friends. I am humbly asking for money to help with time off from work to care for Donna. To help her get back to her own place and on her own. Donna, in December, had COVID and pneumonia, which took over a month to get over. Recently, the week of February 17, Donna started to experience difficulty breathing more than usual, severe headaches, and swelling in her lower extremities. I picked her up, and we headed to the hospital. She was admitted on Wednesday and was diagnosed with diastolic congestive heart failure. She has a long road ahead, needing to make some big changes. She was released on Saturday and came to my house so I can care for her and help get her back to her baseline. It is now Monday, a couple of days later since her release, and we are back in the ER. Urgent care sent us here. I have FMLA that I have been using as well as PTO. However, my paid time off is almost all gone. I would like to be able to give her the support and care she needs for the next two to four weeks. I honestly can't do that without help from others. This is a humbling request. I understand that money and keeping up with the cost of everyday living is hard on a lot of people. I completely understand if you are not in a position to donate, but please do keep her in your prayers. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
