Unexpected Tragedy
Donation protected
Hi my name is Nicole. I am starting this fundraiser for a very important person who positively impacts everyone around her. Sheryl Defranzo was not feeling well 2 weeks ago. She went to the doctor and was diagnosed with pneumonia. After finishing her prescription, she expressed that she was still not feeling herself to a few people. She then went back to the hospital and found out she suffered from a heart attack. They admitted her because they couldnt get her oxygen back up to where it needed to be. She was placed in the ICU for doctors to keep a close eye on her. A few days later, she was out of the ICU and back in a regular room. Still having trouble breathing and oxygen level below where it should be. She suffered an episode overnight where she had stopped breathing in her sleep so severe that the doctors had to revive her. Again she was placed in the ICU where she found out she had a blockage in her heart. Later that afternoon, she suffered another episode where she stopped breathing, but it took doctors over 5 minutes to bring her back this time. As of Wednesday night they transferred her to Tufts to the cardiology floor. She willl have to have heart surgery at some point this week as soon as shes stable enough to handle it. Everyone has been asking what they can do, so I figured this is the best thing for her with her being out of work and having all these medical bills. Also the aftercare that will to be followed. She always brings a smile to everyones face, so now I think its time for all of us to return the favor. I will keep updating this as I get informed on the matter.
