help Jen & Sage with medical bills
Spende geschützt
This page is for my best friend Jen, who has many medical issues, all of which require expensive treatments.It breaks my heart to see her in so much pain and now her daughter is following in her mom's footsteps.
Here is a little of Jen's story: She is contantly in pain and never has much relief. Dr's have not been able to determine what the underlying issues are and how best to help her. They have done many extensive medical tests, all of which cost lots of money. She has lived so many years in such horrible pain and not knowing what her future holds. There are still many unknowns at this point. The doctor's believe Jen has a mitochondrial disease and that her daughter (who is only 10) likely also has it. In order to determine for sure if Jen has it and the type she has, a muscle biopsy must be done. Jen had this muscle biopsy but due to errors on the dr's part or negligence on his part, the specimen was not tested and was unusable. The test cannot be done again due to Jen having complications after the muscle biopsy and her dr's feeling it unsafe to repeat the test. They are now at a point where they are unsure what to do as it seems every dr Jen sees tels her they can no longer see her as she is too complicated and they do not have the experience to help her. At this point she may have to go out of state to either a conference to gain some connections to people in the field of mitochondrial disease or to find a dr who can help them.
Please consider assisting in any way possible. Every little bit helps (even $1 or $5 helps!). And if you cannot help financially at this time, please at least keep Jen and her daughter and all of their medical struggles in your prayers and/or thoughts!
Thank you so much!!
