Help Nurse Amy with Medical Expenses and Bills
Donation protected
On July 24th Amy Johnson was brought to the emergency room with extreme abdominal pain. She was then taken by ambulance to UP Health Systems Marquette for a perforated bowel. She had undergone a very long surgery of a bowel resection with a colostomy. While in the hospital Amy developed bilateral pneumonia , was put on oxygen and still can not eat. As of today, they had to open up her incision in several areas and pack them due to an infection. Amy has already been in the hospital for over a week and will be there at least until her infection clears and she can eat. When she gets home, she will be needing in home care and will be off of work for an extended period of time. In 6 months, she will need to have another surgery to reverse the colostomy which the doctors say is just as long and intensive surgery as the first one. Amy already had missed several months of work last year for a surgery that she is trying to get caught up with financially and now this emergency is just setting her back more. Any donations will go to medical bills and keeping her caught up with her every day bills so she doesn’t get any farther behind. Amy has been a nurse in our community for 20 years and has helped many. Anything you can do to help back would be greatly appreciated.
