Hello! We are here today to help out a family struck by an unexpected and terrifying medical emergency. Our lovely coworker Chanda brought her son to urgent care for neurological symptoms and was sent home. After her mom instinct told her something was very wrong, Chanda brought her beautiful baby boy Avery to the ED where he was rapidly transported to Children's Hospital for a likely diagnosis of Guillain-Barre syndrome. Avery was quickly intubated and underwent a barrage of tests and is currently in the pediatric ICU. The illness rendered him unable to speak or even swallow. As you can imagine, this has been absolutely devastating to his family of 5. Chanda is a hardworking mother working two jobs with an infant at home. As of now, Avery's hospital stay is indefinite. The family was given a ballpark of at least a month in the hospital. Naturally, this is incurring astronomical medical costs, transportation fees for the family, childcare fees for the family, and future fees for Avery's recovery once he is stable. Chanda is one of the kindest people I know and a colleague I have been blessed to work with for years. Please help me cover her in love and prayer and share or donate what you can. Community is so important in these situations, let's take care of our people.
