Helping Jenna with bills and medical expenses since she’s been off work since February.
Jenna continues to have So many medical problems. They seem to get worse almost daily. We are currently awaiting a referral to Mayo Clinic, as her Doctors have told her she’s reached the end of medical intervention. We are praying that Mayo has a different answer for her. We’ve been told we will be there at least a week if not longer, just due to the amount of specialists she needs to see. She still has so much fight and drive in her, we’re not willing to accept this answer. I’m sure many people wouldn’t accept this as an answer either, without knowing you’ve tried EVERY possible option.
In addition to her severe Crohn’s disease and all that it brings, she has now been diagnosed with Cushings disease, Osteopenia and Osteoarthritis. The Osteoarthritis is severe and is affecting every joint. She has trouble walking, stairs have almost become unmanageable and unimaginable pain. She cannot use her left arm, cannot drive anymore due to the pain and immobility of her hip. She has been almost bed ridden for the past 6 months. Watching her again lose so much of her life, and not being able to be active or have a life is so hard as a parent. She misses life, work and especially being able to play with or just hold her nephew. The above picture is the first time she’s had the strength to put on makeup in months. Makeup is one of her biggest passions.
We know that times are tough right now for so many people, and understand if you’re unable to help. If you’re able, it would be greatly appreciated.
