Marica's 24/7 Care and Prosthetics
Donation protected
I'm Lakisha the oldest and only daughter of Marcia Chambers, little did we know that on November 1, 2016 our lives would forever be changed.
My mom went to the hospital after collapsing in her room... after arriving to the hospital everything just happens to speed up, before I knew it my Mom's blood pressure dropped and she was placed on a respirator and was being admitted into the hospital.
After being admitted and placed in the Critical Care Unit my Mom's heart stopped, I couldn't believe this was happening and I was so confused.
How and why was this happening to my Mom?
the Doctors had informed me that my Mom was very sick and her body had become septic due to a bacteria /infection that she didn't know she had.
On November 1, 2016 when I got home I was informed that she was so sick her organs began to fail and her heart was so weak that she wouldn't make it through the night, now my heart was really beginning to break even more, at around 2:00am on November 2, 2016 I got on my knees crying and begged God to have mercy on my mother, I got dressed and went back to the hospital and she made it through the night
My Mother was on medications to keep her heart going. These medications called pressers draw blood from the extremities and send it to the more important organs like the brain, heart etc., and because my Mom was on these medications so long it caused irreversible side effects to her legs and arms.
(After making every attempt to get better before her amputaintion surgeries my Mom caught another infection and became septic again!! )
The side effects caused my Mother to have both legs partially removed below the knee and both arms partially removed below the elbow.
the Money that will be raised will be for Prosthetics, anyone who knows my Mom is aware of how out going, faithful, hos independent she is, and also how much she loves her children and Grand Baby Leah. It hurts me everyday to have to see her and remember every struggle from November 1, 2016, however with the prayers of so many people she is still here with us and continues to fight, she is the strongest women I know with such a testimony to tell. And in her own words " I can't wait to get back to church so I can dance and praise the Lord".
My Family and I thank all of you for your Prayers, words of encouragement and any donations made towards my Moms prosthetics, medical bills and home care.
She is a living Miracle twice over and deserves every opprotunity that I can make possible, I dont want my Mom to miss her hands for her feet.
