Jill’s Medical dolphin Bed

Donation protected
Hello all, my cousin Jill Wickline was diagnosed with progressive M.S back in 1990.  She has been  living with her conditions for 27 years. For the past 9 years She is a full quadriplegic that leaves her unable to move from the neck down. She has a wonderful system of help at home with family, friends, and home health aids that do a remarkable job at keeping her comfortable and caring for her properly. However, due to her condition She has had 4 surgerical flapping done due to bed sores. Unfortunately she has been battling with yet another bed sore for over a year. Her doctor has refused to do another surgical flapping unless she chose to go to a nursing home for three months where she would be at risk of not getting the proper treatment that is needed for her condition and would be at risk in loosing her reliable source of care at home. The only other option would be for her to get a dolphin 900T surface system bed. The dolphin bed innovative fluid immersion simulation technology essentially “floats” patience on computer - regulated pads that automatically adjust and readjust at  numerous pressure points in accordance with the unique weight and contours of each patient. The dolphin bed will maintain proper tissues symmetry to systain blood flow, alleviate pressure pain, and reduce the occupancy of pressure sores. Unfortunately, her medical insurance has denied coverage for the Dolphin bed. Having the dolphin bed at home would allow her doctor to do the surgical flapping and come home after discharge to her regular routine. This will also reduce the chances of her developing bed sores again in the future. Please help by making a small donation to help raise money so Jill can pay for the Dolphin bed, and avoid having this occur again in the future. She deserves to live a comfortable life under her condition and I believe having the bed will help tremendously. If you have any further questions about the product please go to the website www.woundsystems.com.pdf for further information about the Dolphin bed system, so maybe you will see how essential it will be to Jill’s life.
