Help Us Stay Strong During ICU Recovery

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Hannah, and I’m fundraising for my spouse, to try and help with our current situation.

In August of this year, my spouse was admitted to the hospital and has been undergoing multiple treatments, and procedures. They were diagnosed with a rare form of meningitis. Today, an emergency external ventricular drain (EVD) was placed. They are currently staying in the ICU while the drain is placed, and until we see them recovering. It has honestly been the most terrifying, and stressful time of our lives. Being the power of attorney at a young age has been incredibly challenging. I never know what the right answer is, but I absolutely try my best to make sure I make the right decisions.

I have been by their side through every step, and every procedure, but as many of you may know, the ICU doesn’t have a place for family to sleep. I haven’t rested in days, and I’m emotionally and physically drained. On top of that, we are struggling financially - we recently made a big move and three days after getting to our destination, they were hospitalized. We don’t have the funds to cover meals, transportation or a safe place for me to rest while staying close to them during this crucial recovery period.

Any donation, no matter the size, will help with:

-basic necessities (food, water, toiletries)

-temporary lodging nearby so I can be close to my spouse during their recovery

-transportation costs and small but urgent needs as they arise

If you aren’t able to donate, sharing this page would mean the world to us. I want to be fully present for my spouse during this surgery and healing process, and your support would give us stability to focus on their recovery instead of worrying about how to survive the days ahead.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, sharing or donating. Your kindness truly means everything to me right now.

With love and gratitude,
Hannah.
