Support Branigan's Stroke Recovery Journey

Hello, my name is Tanisha Gemlo and I am starting this GoFundMe on behalf of Branigan Secraw. With her approved permission.

On October 5th, Branigan woke up to wish her son a happy birthday. Ezrah states that she seemed off. Her left side of her face was droopy, she was drooling, and couldn’t move her left side. She tried to walk, which was when she fell over and hit her head. Ezrah proceeded to call 911, and she was rushed to North Memorial.

They found out in the hospital that Branigan suffered a stroke. They also discovered a blood clot in her brain, which they were able to remove that day with a procedure. Branigan’s recovery journey is unknown right now. She has limited to no movement on her left side, speech issues, and eating issues. She is going to be in the hospital for an unknown time and then moved to a TCU to help her recover.

Branigan is a single mom of Ezrah and Endigo, and her biggest goal currently is to get back to them as soon as possible. Any little bit that you could donate to help make things easier for her and the kids during this time and looking forward to the future as she will be out of work for an undetermined amount of time would be greatly appreciated.

A CaringBridge is in the works so that people can have updates and follow her recovery. If you have any questions or anything, please reach out to me. I’ve been in her town point of recovery since all her family is 2 hours away. Thank you again.
