Michelles 17 year medical battle

Donation protected
For 17 years my sister, Michelle (Christina) Jackson has been battling a wicked autoimmune disease called Myasthenia Gravis, coupled with cancer. This disease has snowballed into many other illnesses. The radiation from the cancer caused her to have a triple bypass a few years back. Michelle stays poaitive and refuses to let these illnesses defeat OR define her, but this bout is a lil worse. She now has a mitral valve regurgitation and Congestive Heart Failure and has been in the hospital for 3 weeks, they are having trouble getting her heart back to normal, she now has "A Flutter" and she is on oxygen, shes also had a couple setbacks requiring her to be inpatient even longer. She only has a part time job and medicare for insurance (shes partially disabled)and if she works full time they take her insurance. She has to have a treatment once a month that costs 8000$ and cannot lose her health insurance, she has co pays w her insurance and she has been unable to work (in hosp) for 3 weeks and could be another 3, after shes released from hosp she has to go to a rehab for another 2 weeks to get her strength back. Michelle never says NO to anyone and now she needs help, lets not say no to her. Please help me help my sister so her stress level can be reduced thereby helping her get healthy quicker. Stress is wicked for ANY autoimmune illness, especially hers. She hasnt been able to pay her bills this whole month and could really benefit from financial assistance. I would ususally be able to provide care and financial help (not as much as she needs) but i too am in a flare up of my autoimmune disease, so she REALLY needs ALL OF US. Please give whatever you can to help this lady, im sure if you know her she has undoubtedly made u smile, laugh or helped you at some point, lets return the favor and take some stress off of her plate...
Anything is appreciated, even kind words to cheer her up!!! Our whole family appreciates anything that you can do, shes our HERO!! THANKS
