Support a Brave Mom's Fight for Health and Stability
Donation protected
On Tuesday, February 25th 2025, I was sent from the urgent care directly to the ER for pneumonia, fever 103.6, SOB, and a heart rate of 140. I was shortly diagnosed and sent to a room for treatment. By 12:45 02/26/25, I was being admitted to the cardiac floor for further observation. I am a single mom and had to miss my shifts, as well as take off a week of work which I cannot afford. Further testing has shown I have fluid in my lungs, bacteria that spread to my heart. There is a large vegetation growing on my heart. Usually, I would not broadcast my business but this is the first time I’ve ever been hospitalized and I’ve been alone, uncomfortable, scared, and weak. I’m asking for donations so I can get a reliable vehicle and financial stability, in order to be discharged I have to be on daily antibiotics intravenously, for the next 8 weeks. If this doesn’t clear the vegetation I will need to undergo a heart valve surgery. As many of you know, my mother is dead and my father is in prison until 2035. I have little to no support mainly relying on my child’s paternal grandparents, her father is not nice to me. Like I said, I’m in need of financial support because I cannot work or rely on anyone else to help me… so I can focus on healing and being the best mom I can be. This is embarrassing for me to start this and I do feel ashamed asking for help, but if I don’t get proper treatment I will not live longer than 5-10 years. I was unable to pay my rent this month, and I’m not sure when I will be discharged. I’ve been struggling alone here after the testing, all the meds given, and truly am at a loss for words. Your support will go a long way for me and my daughter, I thought long and hard about making this but my daughter needs me to be healthy so I can watch her grow up. I don’t want her to lose me like I lost my mother abruptly. Please donate if you can… at least keep me in your prayers. I had a fever of 103.6 for over a week before I had the energy to help myself. I’ve never undergone this type of problems and I’d really like to heal quickly and effectively.
