Hi my name is Karen and Tina Arment is my baby sister. Some of you already know she went into the hospital for what was supposed to be routine surgery to help her with the back pain she has been suffering with for many years. The surgery too place on Monday November 7th and she was scheduled to leave the hospital after 2 days but the surgery didn’t go as planned and she suffered a setback causing her to lose the feeling and use of her left leg. She has been in the hospital in Omaha since and is awaiting approval from insurance to go to Madonna Rehab in Lincoln.

As you all know Tina has two young girls at home and her husband Brian who is taking care of them, working his full time job and going back and forth to the hospital to be with Tina. This is not easy and takes a lot out of him and not to mention the cost to continue to drive to and from the hospital.

I know my sister well and I know if there is ever anyone in need she will be the first to step up and help. Tina is a good person who has always been there for her friends and family and I hope and pray in her time of need you are all there for her.

I know this time of year is tough but please anything will help.
