Friends, Family, and Community,
Hello, I'm Jake, Hannah's big brother. Witnessing my sister, a dedicated nurse and a loving mother, face this daunting battle against a rare autoimmune disorder has been deeply heart-wrenching. As her family, we are rallying together to support her in every possible way. Today, we extend this circle of support to you, reaching out for help in a situation that has dramatically impacted Hannah's life and urgently needs our collective effort.
The Key Takeaways!
Hannah's Medical Crisis: Hannah, a compassionate nurse and mother, is battling a rare autoimmune disorder affecting her B-12 absorption, leading to severe neurological symptoms.
Impact on Daily Life: This condition has resulted in numbness, extreme weakness, loss of motor function and partial paralysis, making it impossible for her to work or care for herself and her children without full time assistance.
Urgent Financial Need: Funds are critically needed to cover Hannah's medical treatments, rehabilitation, home modifications, and childcare during her extended recovery period.
Community Support Requested: We are seeking your support through donations, sharing this campaign, and offering words of encouragement to help Hannah through this challenging time.
About Hannah:
Hannah has always been the epitome of compassion and care, dedicating 18 years to nursing and nurturing her two young children. Her life, centered around helping others, is now taking an unexpected turn due to her health.
The Condition Explained:
Recently, Hannah was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder. This condition causes her body to mistakenly attack the proteins needed for B-12 absorption. Vitamin B-12 is crucial for nerve function and overall health. Without it, the body can suffer severe neurological issues.
Symptoms and Challenges:
As a result of this B-12 deficiency, Hannah is experiencing extreme symptoms, including numbness, weakness, loss of motor function and partial paralysis. These symptoms have led to her current hospitalization and have significantly impaired her ability to walk, care for herself, and perform her duties as a nurse and mother.
The Long Road Ahead:
The road to recovery is complex and uncertain. Hannah faces a minimum of six months out of work, with the possibility of it extending to a year. She needs intensive medical care, including treatments to manage her autoimmune disorder and therapies to regain her mobility.
Our Goal:
Our fundraising goal is to secure the financial resources necessary to manage the expenses that Hannah's insurance does not cover, including her medical bills, home adaptations for her mobility needs, and essential daily living expenses. Currently, without any source of income and facing a recovery period that could last from six months to a year, Hannah finds herself in an extremely challenging situation. Your support will play a crucial role in helping her navigate this period of unexpected hardship and focus on her recovery without the added stress of financial strain
How You Can Help:
Every donation brings Hannah closer to focusing on her recovery without the stress of financial burdens. Your generosity will support her medical expenses, her children's needs, and necessary adjustments to daily life.
