Support Laurie Snow & Family on Her Road to Recovery
Donation protected
On Monday morning, April 7th, Laurie Snow was driving herself and her husband, Randy, to the Seattle-Tacoma airport to fly home to Arizona when she experienced a severe medical event, losing consciousness at the wheel. Thankfully, Randy was able to safely navigate the vehicle to the side of the freeway and call 911. Laurie was rushed to Providence Medical Center in Everett, WA, where they learned she had experienced a severe tear to her aorta.
After emergency surgery, Laurie was given a 25% chance of survival due to the severity of the tear and its impact on her vital organs, particularly her liver and kidneys. An additional surgery followed on Wednesday, April 9th, after which the surgeons told the family she has a 50/50 chance of pulling through. She is currently still sedated and on periodic dialysis, but her status continues to stabilize and improve. Laurie's progress over the past few days has been nothing short of miraculous - even the fact that she survived long enough to reach the hospital and go into surgery is a miracle for which we thank our Lord and Healer. The doctors are predicting Laurie will be in the hospital for several weeks, at which point she may or may not need further rehabilitation. The road to recovery is daunting, but we rest assured that she is in the care of a miracle-working God!
Following the initial event on Monday, Randy & Laurie's children travelled from Arizona, Michigan, and British Columbia to be with their mother and support Randy during this difficult time. All of this is taking place several states away from where the family lives, which has created a significant financial burden on the family as they work to secure lodging, transportation, etc. We are initiating this campaign to help cover the medical costs and associated expenses the family incurs as they stay here in Washington to support Laurie's journey to recovery. Thank you for your prayers and your support - we are believing for a full recovery! God bless you abundantly.
