Help Fight for my Mom’s Health

Donation protected
Hi everybody, I’m Dominique, I’m 23 & a mommy of four, and my mommy needs help. My mom is 43 and I am making this go fund me for my mom in hopes to help her with bills and also maybe helping find her a good doctor. I don’t really know how to put words together well so I’m going to do my best. My mom caught COVID-19 in 2020, January before anyone had heard of it yet really. After she got over it her health started to decline. Her heart starting going up to over 200bpm, and had to go to so many doctors to figure out it was tachycardia. She then got on medication, since the medication her heart rate would drop down even into 30bpm. She has experienced multiple strokes, passing out while no one was around, she had to have heart surgery where they went in through her veins, this all has prevented her from working out, she ended up gaining a lot of weight, which wasn’t good for her heart so doctors suggested gastric bypass which she got. After the surgery she experienced multiple infection in her abdomen from leaving gauze inside after the procedure, which turned into staph and she was in and out of the hospital being pumped with antibiotics constantly. It took about 2 years for it to finally go away. She also experienced cellulitis. Since all of this she had gone into congestive heart failiure, now she is in the last stages of it. After all of this, her doctors started thinking she had leukemia due to her blood work which led them to doing the standard testing for, and it turned out she did not have it, but she has super low iron and other issues with her blood. Recently, her legs started going numb so she went to the doctor again and they found out some of the disks in her spine are disintegrating. Since this she had to have a couple shots in her back, and soon they are going to do back surgery. She’s had ports placed, veins blown, infections caused from the hospitals. My mom is unable to do anything for herself almost. She cannot afford a caregiver and neither can our family, I’m raising a big family of my own, on my own, so I’m not able to go over much, and also she sleeps a lot due to all of these things so kids running around constantly isn’t something she can really handle. My mom needs help, she’s applied for disability twice in the state of Colorado and they denied her both times. Her husband works, but he can’t too much or they won’t be able to get their Medicaid which supports my moms medical bills, though sometimes when he goes over on his working hours, they lose their Medicaid time to time. He is unable to stay home and take care of her constantly since he has to work, they are also raising two children. If you can’t donate I would like to ask you to please pray for my mom, If you are a Christian I would like to ask for your prayers, she has been going through this nightmare for almost 6 years and the doctors barley help her, so I’m going to try my best. They say when you have your health you have everything, my mom is losing hope and her faith. But I won’t let her. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, God bless

Update: I have told my mom & she thinks it’s almost too good to be true thank you all so much for your love and support for her
