My sweet niece and my sister have really been through it lately. Lily has Rett Syndrome, which is already a terrible disease. Many side effects such as limited use of hands, seizures, and scoliosis accompany this disease. Last month, June 9th, she had to have life-threatening spinal surgery and she did very well. The doctors wanted to get her spine curvature to at least 25%, but she came out at 10%, great news! But then, one of her care givers went to soak some sheets in the upstairs utility room and forgot the water was running. The entire upstairs flooded, along with water flowing through her walls and ceiling downstairs. Long story short, over $25K worth of damage and my sister and Lily were relegated to an ADA room at a hotel in the midst of healing from spinal surgery. A couple of days ago, Lily was admitted to the hospital with severe kidney issues which has now developed into a kidney infection with her blood pressure going through the roof. Because she's non-verbal, she can only writhe in pain and cry. She's now been admitted to the ICU because of sepsis, which is quite serious, and she'll be there for several days.

As you can imagine this has placed an extreme amount of stress on our sister as she not only is bed side with her very I'll daughter, but cannot go home because her house needs to be repaired but she can't currently address it under the circumstances,  she is away from work therefore not collecting a paycheck....

I would appreciate any good thoughts/good vibes or prayers you can throw their way but more so, financial assistance during this extremely stressful and trying time. I'm ready for my sister to live a relatively stress-free life and enjoy her little girl as all parents do. ♥️
