Jorge’s Recovery Fund

Donation protected

From Mona... “I just wanted to take a minute and update everyone on Jorge’s situation. Sunday evening he starting feeling weak in his left leg. Noticed his leg wasn’t working right. He went to bed and thought he was just weak after being sick a few days before with fever, stomach cramps and diarrhea. . . He got up and dressed for work the next morning and walked out the back door to check on Zeus cause he kept barking in the back. As he tried to come back up the stairs to the patio he had a difficult time. He still went on to work. At work he felt a little more weak and fell not being able to keep his balance. . He decided to go to the ER because he knew something wasn’t right. . There they couldn’t do some test that they were wanting to do so he was transferred here to BSA. Here at BSA they have done bloodwork, MRIs, an echo, Xrays, an ultrasound etc. Well he now doesn’t have enough strength to walk. . They have come to the conclusion and diagnosed him with Guillain-Barre Syndrome. (Dallas Cowboy ex player Travis Frederick had it) This is is a rare disorder in which your body's immune system attacks your nerves. Weakness and tingling in your extremities are usually the first symptoms. These sensations can quickly spread, eventually paralyzing your whole body. In its most severe form Guillain-Barre syndrome is a medical emergency. Most people with this condition must be hospitalized to receive treatments. He has started treatments and is working with physical therapists. . He has a process ahead of him to get his strength back so please continue to pray for him! Thanks to all that have called, text and messaged to check on him. Sorry if we don’t respond right away but it is having to set in with him and he is quite emotional. He will not give up though because he says “My kids and grand babies need me!” Everything is going to be fine because we have a BIG GOD!!! With this being said, appreciate what you have and never take anything for granted because as he is proof that at one moment you are fine, normal and walking and the next you aren’t and can’t even walk. . . Thank you everyone! ❤️❤️“
