On February 17th my sister Bridget went into the hospital and was put into the ICU immediately. Suffering from pneumonia, influenza A, and blood infection. She was airlifted twice to different hospitals, where she now stays in the Avera ICU in Sioux Falls SD.

Her condition is tumultuous, and critical. She remains intubated, and on a ventilator while her body continues to fight. Everyday is a struggle, but we remain hopeful for my sisters recovery.

Her husband and our family have received so much love, words of encouragement, and much comfort as her friends and family came to comfort all of us.

Bridget is an absolute bundle of joy, laughs, and positivity. She is incredibly funny, compassionate, and always available to give you advice. She is loved so greatly by everyone she meets, and we could not ask for a better sister, daughter, aunt, and wife.

Her medical costs will be significant, and we are raising this money to help support not only her, but her husband Luke, during this troubled time. Any amount will be beneficial towards my sister and her husband. So please consider donating.

We will continue to remain hopeful, and are awaiting the day she wakes up. Until then, we will continue to update you all on her condition, and any other updates we can offer.

We sincerely appreciate all of your support.

With love,

The Baty's & Heytens
