Georgia ' s medical expenses
Donation protected
Georgia received the HPV vaccination last September. She went put cold within minutes of the vaccination. She continued to have severe headaches, and weakness. January 29th she had a grand mal seizure at church in front of about 200 kids. Later that week she had swelling on her brain and could barely go from the bed to the couch. We exhausted every Cardiologist, neurologist, so called specialist between Charleston and Atlanta. Georgia was put on homebound and unable to return to school from February 2 , to the rest of the year. Endless tests including MRI, 2 EEG, echocardiogram, etc. They came up with the diagnosis of POTS. She is on Florinef, a type of steroids. She is on a very high dose. Without it she has no quality of life. She starred having psychosis from the condition, and probably the meds. The Dr's were not sure. I had to miss all total of close to 3 months of work. We are a working class family. It takes both incomes to function. I have not had a paycheck in over a month and a half. The bills are piling up, and worse of all we are no where near at the end of her treatment. Her life may never be the same, but I want her to be able to continue to try to find a solution. Any help would be appreciated. We would not ask if we were not in this unfortunate situation. We have spent every penny we had saved and exhausted every credit card we had, and watched Georgia suffer unrelentlessly in the meantime. To say this has been a nightmare is an understatement. Everytime we think she might be getting better she has another seizure, or different emotional or mental issues including scary hallucinations. Prayer is appreciated . Georgia has 3 Dr's appt in the next 10 days. We pray we will come up with the money to pay the specialists and most importantly that our once very active Georgia will return to some sense of normal. Thanks for all of the support. Love to you all.
