Long-Covid relief; creating a MIRACLE for Jill

Donation protected
My sister, Jill Caree Anderson, has been battling Long-Covid Syndrome since 2020. Long-Covid has cost Jill her job, home, health insurance, damage to her cognitive function, plagued her with chronic fatigue, given her a TIA Stroke, heart problems and depleted her financial resources. Doctors around the globe are working to find a cure for Long-Covid Syndrome, but in the meantime, her symptoms (and countless other people’s symptoms) continue to get worse.
I am Jill’s sister, Jenae Anderson. My family & I pray that this fundraiser will reduce the amount of stress Jill is under with her declining health, rising medical bills and depleted bank account. I initially set this fundraiser up to ensure that she didn't lose her home; sadly Jill had to sell her home in January 2023. She is working with her Doctors to try and appeal a Long-Term-Disability claim with Lincoln Financial. As of today Nov 14, 2023, her claim is still being denied. Lincoln Financial, a 3rd party insurance company, continues to deny her funds stating, Long-Covid isn't a real disability. Lincoln Financial owes Jill over 6 figures; she is in the process of her 3rd and final appeal. If they deny her claim again, they'll close her claim forever and she'll be paid nothing.

Jill has risen from the ashes of more devastating health conditions than her family & friends can count. She has experienced 20+ years of painful health problems and heartbreaking divorce. Courageously, Jill has managed to keep a smile on her face, embrace others with kindness and maintain her sense of humor. Because of her contagious positive energy & fun-loving personality, most people would NEVER guess that she has endured and continues to endure many serious health problems.

In her 20's, Jill learned that she has a rare connective tissue disorder. This disorder causes prolapse of internal organs, which is dangerous and difficult to reconstruct surgically. Sadly, many of her non-vital organs have been removed, including her ability to have children. Jill has had 3 shoulder reconstruction surgeries due to her connective tissue disorder. She was rear-ended in a car accident in 2010 that damaged her discs and spine. She has had 2 back surgeries over the years, gets bi-monthly spinal injections, and endures chronic pain daily. Jill knows that her future holds more prolapse & back surgery due to the nature of the illness & injuries. However, she does not know the future of her Long-Covid, which has been worsening and complicating her pre-existing conditions.


Through it all, she continues to look for positive life lessons in each situation. She's always the first to give others kind words of encouragement, compassion, gratitude, and love. However, her family is starting to see the light fade in her eyes. We’re worried that Long-Covid could be the “straw that broke the camel’s back” for Jill. It’s difficult to stand by and watch as she emotionally, mentally and physically deteriorates.

If anyone on this planet deserves a miracle, it is Jill. She is not the kind of person that would ask for help, so I'm asking on her behalf.

Thank you for taking the time to read Jill’s story, and donate if you can. If you cannot donate, please SHARE this page for Jill. Her family still believes in miracles, and we're praying to create one with your assistance for our dear Jilly Bean.
With much Gratitude, Jenae Anderson & the Anderson Family.
