Help my sister with post hospital stay costs
Donation protected
Hi, so this is not for me specifically, but I'm doing this on behalf of my sister. Last Monday on the 7th, she went to the ER to have an infected abscess checked out—we didn't know then that this would lead to something much more serious. Shortly after being seen by a doctor, she was informed that she'd be admitted because the infection was much worse than we'd intially expected.
The infection had reached her bone, though we didn't quite know how bad just yet, just that they needed to get antibiotics into her as soon as possible, on top of that, she was also exhibiting signs of high blood pressure and diabetes as well.
After 5 days in Lake Monroe Hospital, she was informed that she'd have to be moved to Osceola Hospital to see a doctor about having a procedure done to remove the infected bone, and on Saturday morning she had the procedure done—thus removing the infected bone from her foot to better clear up the infection.
She's on the mend now and is heading towards recovery thankfully, but this past week she's had to miss work due to being hospitalized and will be missing work for the duration of her recovery.
So, I've put together a small goal to sort of help out—its not a lot but, my sister and brother in law are at risk of losing their housing and this will help go towards keeping a roof over their head so she has a place to recover for the next 2 months.
I'd appreciate if you could share this around. Thank you!
