Kim's chance of being able to enjoy life
Donation protected
My mom has copd & emphysema she is unable to enjoy life , unable to go out and do activities with her family. Unable to be around anyone without being scared of catching the flu or any of the sorts. Her immune system cannot take anymore than what it already has been through .She has been hospitalized twice wearing a ventilator helping her breathe due to her lungs being so weak. The first time she was hospitalized she was in there for two weeks which was in April . & as I type this which is now may I'm sitting in the hospital room with her once again with the same reason as the first. This time alot more worse than the first, she almost had to get flown to two different hospital but thankfully the hospital that she was already in had a place for her. Still had to get flown over already wearing a ventilator. Everything was the same as the first but this time they have her on medicine to completely paralyze her and alot of high sedation because it was worse than the last . We almost lost her not only once but twice because it's so bad .The portable tanks are to big for her to carry and she really has to work and breathe hard for the tanks to even work. She tried to get one through her oxygen company but she is on a waiting list. So that is the reason I set this up for her. To help her to enjoy what life she has left, she has been through so many obstacles in her life and over come them all just with this she needs help. I was to young to help her then so now that I'm older it's my turn to take care of her & help her with what I can. Unfortunately we are unable to afford a portable that she can carry. With already being in the hospital once before now once again. Not only this time she has hospital Bill's but a helicopter flight and that alone can cost a high chunk of money. My husband looked up what caused copd exacerbations and they are the following. Weather changes , doing to much activity, not getting enough sleep or being run down, and being under stress or feeling anxious. I know I cant fix all of these categories but we can try & fix the stress. Specially once she gets out of the hospital this time and she gets her medical Bill's. She is an amazing women would help anyone when she could. Shes honest, shes caring, and would give you the shirt off her back if she had to. She always makes sure everyone else is ok even when shes hurting. She NEVER asks for anything or even for help & that could be one of the main reasons of why we have been in the hospital twice within two months. She is my absolute best friend & has always always helped me no matter the situation . I'm not to proud to ask for help because I know it's ok to ask but my mom is still learning to do that. So this is the reason why I post this to ask for help I wanna do anything to keep a little bit of stress away from her. Whoever knows my mom knows all of what I said is true and I know you guys will help I believe we all can help her enjoy what she has left.
