SEEKING SUPPORT – MOTHER OF 3 , ONE AUTISTIC, WITH PSYCHOSIS LOST EVERYTHING, HOME ALL BELONGINGS CAR EVERYTHING DURING ALL THIS .BATTLING FOR MY LIFE FOR SO LONG ITS NOW COME DOWN TO HOSPICE.
Getting to this point and not being able to afford my life saving medications and others.
I’m a mother now after years of battling starting hospice soon. Mommy of three only 33 years of age one of my children of which is autistic. I am battling brain cancer (two tumors), COPD, Congestive heart failure, Seizure Disorder, PTSD, kidney failure, Pulmonary Artery disease, Lyme disease, adrenal failure, muscle disease and traveled to the bones, Prolactinoma, and more. I’ve survived a coma, cardiac arrest, and multiple septic shocks w/ two heart failures and stroke. Now, MRSA has returned aggressively, and into the bloodstream , will be hospitalized again.
On top of my health struggles, life threatening surgeries, , we’ve lost everything—our home, belongings, car, and business. My children and I have started over moving in with family. Coming back with nothing , across the country, away from the children’s entire lives as they knew it.
They are wonderful sweet , caring , beautiful children and as any child this is something no one prepares you for as well as myself. I’ve always been the loving , caring type to help any stranger in need. Finding out who your friends are and family genuinely shows in these types of times. But will continue to fight through every bit of this!
I have been sick for a couple of years struggling deeply before this , but declining more and more rapidly. Until finally I started to stop breathing, my heart beat got very shallow and fell into a deep coma. The paramedics told family I was lucky they came when they did because even a few minutes later I would not be here today. After awakening alone from the coma not being able to see , speak , or move. Due to tie downs for protection ( so do not panic pulling the iv’s & ventilator ) , a gel type substance used to cover the eyes, as well as being on a ventilator ( so therefore could not speak. I was terrified . I remember the horrors that now became my nightmares with PTSD to follow. As well as going into Cardiac arrest , taking 3 times to bring me back . The lack of oxygen also caused some brain damage ( cognitive mostly ) . Causing fractured bones in the chest area as well as major bruising. The hospital very lengthy stay was a nightmare alone. Was left in a “ mess “ many times, handled very roughly, most very unkind , no tv , and very lonely. I remember the sun was so hot in the room it made me sick all day I would just pray for nighttime to cool down. The ventilator was cutting into my mouth causing me to bleed. I was left tied down long after I had awoken from the coma. A inhumane amount of time for someone alert and awake & not a threat to themselves or anyone else. I could not speak up for myself because of the ventilator.
After leaving the hospital I was put into a nursing home ( being the youngest by close to 40- 50 years ) I suffered abuse in this home. All of my family was across the country trying their best to prepare their home for me and my 3 children on their very limited income. Somehow awakening from the coma something happened and I was unable to walk or mobilize from the waste down. I was a hoyer lift for months. A A final force hospital trip at the very end of my nursing home stay was the end of it. The hospital noticed the abuse and neglect causing major permanent damage to parts of the body. As well as lasting infections. After leaving AMA from the nursing home I was finally to be with family again. But my health still declines.
And now , after the entire horrific ordeal for me and my children losing everything we’ve ever owned and or loved is gone. Due to the panic and rush when I fell into the coma, and having it all left behind. We must continue to make this our forever home with our family being made from a 2 family home to a 6. But, we need help doing so as bringing in another full grown disabled adult and 3 children into the mix wasn’t the plan. And now hospice and doing preparations and am scared to death. But I am so tired of fighting and my body has had enough.
Things such as home repairs, flooring , add on to the home, walls put up, Sheet-rock in one of the rooms, painting , furniture , room divider, extra home and now, bedroom items, some clothing, medical type shoes due to excessive swelling, medical equipment for use & safety.
Help with medication cost not covered, preparing for the worst and my life ending . And me nor my family are in a current financial good state, added monthly bills, as well as after I’m gone, past & current bills , , before we lose even more as well, it’s the last hour, medical expenses , travel expenses , etc. The list goes on and on .
I can provide proof of everything. Please, if you can help, even a little, it means everything right now.
I appreciate kindness and support more than I can say. Thank you for reading, sharing, and helping however you can.
Any amount is deeply appreciated.
