Help for Medical Costs and Bills

Donation protected
Jennifer is a 35 year old mother of 2 precious girls.  She started having back pain at the beginning of June and went to work for a week just trying to deal with the pain, not knowing at the time how life threatening this issue would later become.  Jennifer carries the families medical insurance and will lose her job this coming Friday due to not being able to return to work since this began in June.  Her husband also lost his job during this medical crisis having to take her back and forth to the hospital and take care of their 2 daughters.

Please pray for this precious family!  They can use all the prayers and financial assistance that we can get for them.  

Timeline of medical issues:
On June 3rd, 2019 Jennifer's right leg went to sleep but then feeling came back into her leg. 
On June 4th her pelvis, buttocks, and right leg went numb.
By June 7th, Jennifer was incoherent and had to be rushed by ambulance to NEGMC in Gainesville, GA.  7 hours later she was admitted due to severe disk herniation at her L5/SI
On June 8th, this healthy mother of 2 was taken into emergency back surgery.
June 12th, Jennifer was released from the hospital for the first time.
But on June 26th, Jennifer was taken via ambulance back to NEGMC due to septic shock, meningitis, and water on her brain.
June 27th, Jennifer was taken back for her 2nd emergency surgery to open her back wound.  Then it was found that she had a CSF leak and very large abscess.  It was determined that she has Serratia Marscens.
June 28th Jennifer was still running a high fever due to the extreme infection that had set up in her back wound.
On July 2nd, Jennifer was taken in for another surgery to re-open her back wound which had another abscess and had grown bacteria.
She was released again from the hospital on July 11, 2019.
On August 1st, Jennifer had another CT scan due to increased pain which revealed more disc damage and even more abscess/infection.
August 4th, Jennifer had another MRI which showed osteomyeletis and discitis, epidural abscess and abscess behind the wound.
On August 22, Jennifer had a disc aspiration at the hospital.
On September 4th, the wound in her back had been leaking a lot of fluid.  The wound care team sent her for another MRI.
September 5th, Jennifer went for a follow up with the neurosurgeon who requested further testing.
On September 6th, those test results showed high markers for inflamation.  She was admitted another time to NEGMC with a new surgery scheduled on Friday, September 13th.  This will be her 5th and 6th surgeries due to this issue since June.

Jennifer still currently has an open wound in her back which still has lots of infection.  She has no feeling in her pelvic region and has a lot of difficulty walking and maneuvering around her house.  Her youngest daughter has autism and desperately needs her mom and routine (which is non-existant due to all these back issues).

Please share Jennifer's story and help this family get the financial and prayer support that they so desperately need!
