Sara’s Fight

Sara Elizabeth has been fighting CNS Lupus and NMO which is a full out attack on the Central Nervous System. The NMO also causes blindness on a slow and painful process. She has daily battle with her body to keep it from fighting itself and tearing itself down. She has been experiencing debilitating seizures which has been learned come from a part of the brain that is behind the chiasm and hard to monitor and treat with traditional anti seizure medications. Over the last week the seizures were so severe and uncontrollable that she was sedated and intubated. These frequent trips and admissions to the hospital are taking a financial toll on her family. While she is in the hospital her husband must take time from work to care for their 3 kids. He works as a Firefighter/EMT in their city. For every shift he has covered by a fellow Firefighter he has to work an extra shift to pay it back. Which is amazing that he gets the coverage but downfall is the payback keeps him from home longer than his normal shift schedule.  Once she is released to go home she starts her next round of IV chemo treatments. She was going once a week for 4 weeks every 6 months and that now has been upped to every 4 months. The amount of hardship this family faces on a daily basis trying to help their wife and mother stay alive is tragic. Let’s show this family they are not alone in their fight!!!
