Update- On July 29, 2022 my mother passed away after having recovered from her time at the hospital. She went in for a surgery to remove a colostomy bag and was getting ready to be discharged. Complications from the surgery caused her to go under cardiac arrest and she never made it out of the hospital. We are requestiong help for outstanding medical debt and help to plan her memorial service in Puerto Rico so she can be near her family. Previous funds helped my mother's extended stay at the nursing facility. Any contribution will be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone. My name is Rosimer Suarez. I am setting up this fundraiser for my Mother, Wilma Maldonado. On November, 16 2021, my mother was rushed to the emergency room and was admitted for DKA (ketoacidosis-diabetic coma). This caused many complications and affected her kidneys. We almost lost her a few times. In addition, the diabetic coma caused a small wound to turn into Necrotizing Fasciitis (flesh eating bacteria). She had 2 surgeries during her stay. One surgery to remove all the dead skin which left her with a very large open wound and another surgery to attach an ostomy bag. She remained in the hospital for 2 months and was recently transported to a skilled nursing facility where she is currently receiving treatment and healing. She still has much recovering to do. She continues to require extensive wound care. Unfortunately, Medicare will only cover 20 days of her stay at the facility and she will still require a lot of care. Any funds collected will only be used on expenses generated from her care and treatment. Funds will be put to use immediately. Please share this post with friends and loved ones so that we can get the word around. Any contribution you can make will be greatly appreciated. She is on the road to recovery now, and with your help, we can get there even faster!
