Support Angela's Fight for Life and Healing

The Fight for Angela’s Life

On Wednesday, December 11, 2024 Flight for Life rushed Angela to Swedish Medical Hospital where she was put on a ventilator and ECMO/life support, in an attempt to save her life.

Angela had been suffering for weeks from organizing pneumonia and despite many medical interventions, it relentlessly attacked her body and lungs until they were so ill and inflamed that they could no longer function on their own.

To complicate things further, Angela has Multiple Sclerosis and was trying to manage her symptoms from that when she first fell ill several weeks ago.

Angela’s initial prognosis was grim but over the last few weeks, she has made some progress. Her lungs are still very ill and she remains on life support to give them time to heal.

Because of this, Angela will be in ICU and subsequent recovery for a long time. We know that God has incredible plans for her future and that we will get to experience our beautiful wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend for many years to come!

In the meantime, the financial hardships are already increasing and the family is in need of support. In addition to medical coverage the overall expenses for this type of care are immense. Funds raised will assist in covering any patient responsibility for care, daily living expenses and bills for the family, and travel expenses, given the hospital is over an hour from where they live.

Angela is a truly amazing woman who has contributed so much to the lives of others and now we want to show the same love in return.

Thank you and God bless you for your support!

Sincerely,

Sandra Wankel (Angela’s sister)
