Toya's Expenses

Donation protected
Two weeks ago my husband myself and brother in law went out for a few drinks. Those who know me know I'm a light weight 105 lbs so I only had one drink. On the way home I didn't feel well. Once we got home I attempted to take a shower in hopes of feeling better. I found myself literally throwing up in my shower. My husband rushed upstairs but I had the lights off because my head was hurting so bad. I was crawling on the floor trying to find my bed however I just couldn't pick my head up. My husband attempted things from water to an ice pack to just laying on the floor with me. After 10 mins he demanded we go to Mary Washington 2:45 am to be seen. We really thought it was just my blood pressure. When I arrived I only remember crying and him saying baby we are almost there. Fast forward  they took me in my pressure was 162/130 or something like that so of course they thought I had a stroke. However it was worst. I got a  CAT scan and doctor tells us that I had bleeding on my brain (3am) She then calls VCU and tells my husband we habe to fly her to VCU. I'm freaking out by now. I was flown to VCU and has emergency surgery to put a drain in my brain to help get the fluid off. 


Just when you think it's over! 

I received an MRI the next day and they discovered I had a tumor at the base of  my brain. 

I've had two surgeries so far  and have to have another today to get a permanent shunt placed in my brain. I'm only asking for assistance because I own my own business  however I can't work due to the tumor.  I've lost my hearing in my left ear


Once this is over I'll still need radiation treatment to help control this tumor. My husband has been taken care of everything as he should however any extra help would be great. You guys I'm a fighter and I'm going bounce back just watch. Any help would be appreciated. 


Have a fabulous day guys and I thank you for reading my story .
