Help to pay the hospital expenses
Donation protected
My name is Maricela Hernandez I was on a long-haul flight, after long hours I knew something was wrong because when I stand I felt dizzy and then collapsed.
I was assisted by another passenger who is a doctor, he recognized I was having a massive stroke. He persuaded the Airlines flight crew to land in the nearest city with a major hospital in Houston.
They took me to the Memorial Hermann hospital, for more advanced treatment. Doctors determined I suffered a type of stroke called a large vessel occlusion, and that a blood clot was restricting blood flow to at least 80% of the left side of the brain.
I underwent surgery which procedure known as mechanical thrombectomy to remove blood clots from the brain.
The procedure involves inserting a catheter into an artery in the hand or leg, and following that artery like a highway to the brain. Once there, the surgeon managed to find the clot and remove it.
The surgery was a success, but now I was left with the hospital bill, your support and generosity, no matter how small, is appreciated, as it will cover the hospital expenses.
Even though I have to eradicate the problem I have, I have to undergo heart surgery to close a hole I have that allows clots to leak out. I also have to see a neurologist for fully recovery.
If would you like to more information, I will happy to give you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support and generosity.
With sincere gratitude.
