Help Morgan and His Mom Come Home!

Please help one of the kiddos I work with and his mom survive a long hospital stay!  Lisa is a single mom for Morgan, who has multiple physical and developmental disabilities.  Last Friday, June 8th, Morgan got a piece of steak stuck in his throat.  After two long and scary trips to the emergency room this weekend and two surgeries (one of which was six hours long), he is on a long, slow road to recovery.  He has multiple drain lines and a stent, will have to have a feeding tube for three months, and has a serious case of pneumonia.   He had a tear in his esophagus and will be in the hospital about a month.  Doctors said that he is lucky he survived the weekend. 



Lisa just found out that the State will not pay her stipend for caring for Morgan while he is in the hospital.  This is the money that allows Lisa to pay their bills and lovingly care for her son, which is a full-time job.  Meanwhile, Lisa has to stay round the clock at the hospital for Morgan, who is in a lot of pain and can't make his own medical decisions or easily communicate his needs.  Friends and family, including us, are mobilizing occasional volunteer respite care for her so that she can eat, sleep, and shower -- but she needs to be able to continue to pay their regular bills plus absorb the extra costs of food at the hospital.



Lisa is one of the dearest, most kind and giving people we know.  She helped us with our foster son.  She helps other parents of kids with disabilities.  She's active in Special Olympics, best buddies, and all sorts of enrichment activities for children with disabilities.  We need to support her at this critical time!

God has already given Morgan a miracle -- his life.  Please help us be the miracle Lisa needs -- the financial support she loses while her son recovers.

PLEASE HELP US BRING LISA AND MORGAN HOME!
