- We are normally a pretty private family but we need your prayers and support. Our daughter Hannah is very sick. Friday morning Hannah woke up early with a pain in her lower right abdomen she took some medicine drink a bottle of water and went back to bed. When she woke up later she was feeling better she didn’t even tell me she had anything going on. She worked on a few sewing projects for a few hours then about noon said she wasn’t feeling well and she was going to to lay down for a while. She rested for a few hours and then called me to come to her room to feel of her she thought she had a fever. When I checked on her she was shivering uncontrollably and almost crying in pain in her lower right abdomen. I immediately thought appendicitis. So we rushed to Rhea medical er where they ruled out appendicitis but discovered she has 2 kidney stones one was 5mm in size. They also through bloodwork and urinalysis discovered she has a uti but not your normal uti. Hannah had The "worst" urinary tract infection it is generally considered to be pyelonephritis, which is an infection of the kidneys. Also known as a kidney infection, it is a more serious form of a UTI that can lead to permanent kidney damage, or even become fatal, if not treated promptly. Hannah was also septic. She was admitted to the floor around midnight. Early Saturday morning her blood pressure dropped dangerously low which led her to be placed in the icu at rhea. She was placed on a medication to stabilize her blood pressures this medication will damage tissuse if placed in a normal iv. With that issue and her being very dehydrated they decided to place a central line. She wasn’t voiding as much urine so they cathed her and started pushing tons of fluids. The stone ended up blocking the affected kidney so we needed to be moved to a hospital with a urologist. We where transferred to Bradley medical the only hospital with a urologist and an open bed in icu. We arrived here Saturday afternoon around 4:30 they immediately took her to the or where the dr placed a stent he was able to drain the kidney but didn’t want to increase her risk of infection. She has had tons of blood work and test run. She has constantly ran a low grade fever last night it spiked 3 times the highest being 103.5. Her blood pressure is still low and sometimes drops so she hasn’t been able to come off the medication that can only be administered in an icu unit. She is still very sick and I’m not sure how long she will be in icu and then the regular hospital floor. Hannah had some medical issues when she was younger but now as an adult she is normally overall very healthy. Hannah worked at Walmart for the last four years a couple of months ago she applied to work at the tire plant she got hired thinking that she was bettering herself working closer to home and making better money. She worked there almost three months and then on her day off after her work week shift she got a call that Nokian had ended her contract. She hasn’t been able to to get unemployment neither has she been able to get another job (she hasn’t over 30 applications in). She also doesn’t have health insurance. As you know anything medical is expensive but ambulance services and icu stays are incredibly expensive. I have said all of this to say we need as many prayers as we can get and your support.
Hannah is loved by so many especially her nephews and nieces. Her siblings are all worried sick about her. We need our Hannah well and home!
