Donation protected
Hello. My name is Shonda and i am starting a fundraiser to help the Crawford Family as Kelby is fighting for his life in South Carolina at MUSC. Kelby sought treatment for Covid19 for he and his wife Magan in Sc after being told in Ga that he and his wife were not sick enough for the monolucal antibodies treatment to treat covid19. (Also it was said in GA that they only give the treatment to persons with pre-existing conditions ). Kelby and Magan did what they had to do to try and survive and beat their worsening covid19 after being denied the treatment. Upon arrival in SC, to seek the monolucal antibody treatment, Kelby was hypoxic and sent to closest hospital ER before getting any treatments. Magan recieved her treatment and felt much better soon after. She stated, she wished Ga would had helped them "both" 4 days prior.
Together Kelby and Magan have 3 kids and are both employeed at Obsession bows. Both are out of work due to the covid19 illness. The last 10 days have been very difficult. Kelby has ran high temps for a week now of 102-104 degrees while in the hospital. Kelby has been diagnosed with covid pnuemonia. He had a seizure on December 8th. The hospital had to induce paralyzation to try and keep Kelby stable. He has been on a vent at 100 percent after the seizure. Magan could only watch her husband through a glass window where he laid unconscious with vitals going up and down. Thankfully Kelby was transferred to SC # 1 hospital due to their ability to treat severe covid patients. Currently, the doctors at MUSC, have changed some medications to remove the paralyzation meds and replace with a sedative. The fever has came down to 102 and the vent is down to 70%. Kelby is still unconscious but definately fighting to be here. The MUSC doctor has informed Magan that her husband will be with them for a minimum of 4-6 weeks. This is the best bit of good news and hope Magan has been given siince Decemebr 8th but Kelby has a long road of recovery ahead for his body has been attacked by the virus. Kelby needs continued prayers as well as his family and friends who love him. In kelbys last video to us on december 7th he said he was going home to see his kids and" it may be 3 days or 6 days but the nurses had promised him he would be going home" at some point to see them.
This GO FUND ME is set up to help with Kelby and magans bills as they both are out of work currently. Also Magan is staying at a Homewood Suites at a weekly rate a half mile from the hospital where kelby is in ICU fighting to get better. Magan has been told by the MUSC dr that she may be able to see Kelby in a day or two. Please donate as much as you are able to this fund. Kelby and Magan are incredible people and deservie this assistance. Please also remember they have 4 children and this horrible ordeal is occuring now - during Christmas - which puts an additional burden on Magan. Please follow your heart and help us help the Crawford's. Prayers are needed continually.
