Jillian Crowe Heart Fund

My Name is Merissa.   On May 16th, 2015, my mother, Jillian Crowe, age 49, suffered two widow maker heart attacks.  Her widomaker LAD artery was blocked at 100 %.  Two stents were administered to save her life of which at this point she had only a 6% chance of survival.   My family and I were devasted that we may lose her.  On May 19th, 2015, my mother had chest  pain and shortness of breath and was admitted to the hospital again and two more stents were placed, this time in her right and left arteries one blocked at 80 % and the other at 70%.  When she left the hospital her heart function was at 35% and had to wear a zoll life vest for months.. she has been doing everything she can to change her lifestyle, and eat right and control her diabetes and high blood pressure and high choelstrol.  She is still struggling on and off with her heart condition, in June she had restinosis of her stents and needed an angioplasty.  In August, 2015, she was admitted to the hospital again short of breath and chest pain, and got yet another stent (total of 5 now) she has exhausted most of her advanced sick leave at work and her voluntary donated leave and will soon be on Leave without Pay  ( LWOP).  This wouldn't be so bad normally, but as of November 30, 2015 my step father Anthony is no longer is employed,  he isnt eligible for Unemployment.  So no money will be coming into their household.  Last week, December 22, 2015 she was admitted once more to the hospital and they found a 60 % blockage again in her widowmaker and needs to have either another stent or open heart surgery.  My family would like to get another opinion at the Cleaveland Heart Clinic on the open heart surgery but we just dont have the money to do so.. and right now they are struggling with household bills, Home, car, her medications alone are ($450 a month) insurance, food, utilities. Total from this year my mother has accumulated over $125,700 in just co pays that she still owes to the hospital, between surgeries and cardiac rehab and follow up visits.   I am asking for $7,500 just to get them by until my mother can get well and get back to work and my step father finds employment... If you see it in your hearts to donate more, it would be greatly appreciated.. Please pray for my mother and her health and their financial needs.  I need her to be here for me and my family. I want to grow old with my mom still by my side.
