Because this surgery was so delicate, Tammy would not be able to bear weight on her feet and would be wheelchair bound for approximately 10-12 weeks. If all goes well, she will be able to start a very limited weight-bearing process that would last an additional 10-12 weeks. Her husband, Mike, had to take a leave of absence from work because their health insurance does not provide for Home Health Care.
The scary part is, this has left them with only a base income that will not cover monthly expenses for an undetermined amount of time due to the extent, severity and uncertainty of her injuries. Their health insurance will not cover the extended care, rehab or the additional medications needed for her to get healthy again. Costs are mounting and unknown costs linger. Tammy is an amazing person who volunteers her time, while working full-time and is always there for her family and friends. We would love to give back to her. Please help Tammy get back on her feet, put food on the table and get the continued medical care she needs to fully recover.
