Help for Katherine (Diabetes complications)

Donation protected
The picture was taken on June 17 2019 on her Birthday :) My sister is been Ill for a while now this is what we now so far : 

Katheryn developed a pulmonary edema due to a respiratory failure that is so important, she was almost intubated. It's possible she also has pneumonia. The lung area affected is big and cannot be distinguished clearly. The medicine the doctors have given her is limited, because the kidneys are also compromised. Her condition makes her susceptible to heart failure. She's currently in the ICU, fighting for her life at 49 years old.

At the moment Katheryn needs to have a thorax tomography to give the doctors a clear view of her lungs. Doctors confirmed the lungs need to be drained from fluid so it doesn't continue to affect the heart and then follow treatment to save her kidneys.

We need the funds as soon as possible because Katherine doesn't count with health insurance and the hospital policy forces us to pay the full amount of the expenses, every two days.

She will need to spend several days in the ICU because her oxygen level saturation is too low, due to the fluids in her lungs. Having her in the ICU, costs us 2k per night. The money donated will helps us afford the expenses that will lead to her recovery.

Katheryn desarrolló un edema pulmonar debido a una insuficiencia respiratoria que es tan importante que casi estaba intubada. Es posible que ella también tenga neumonía. El área pulmonar afectada es grande y no se puede distinguir claramente. La medicina que le han dado los médicos es limitada, porque los riñones también están comprometidos. Su condición la hace susceptible a la insuficiencia cardíaca. Actualmente está en la UCI, luchando por su vida a los 49 años.

En este momento, Katheryn necesita una tomografía de tórax para que los médicos puedan tener una visión clara de sus pulmones. Los médicos confirmaron que los pulmones deben drenarse del líquido para que no continúe afectando el corazón y luego siga el tratamiento para salvar sus riñones.

Necesitamos los fondos lo antes posible porque Katherine no cuenta con un seguro de salud y la política del hospital nos obliga a pagar el monto total de los gastos, cada dos días.

Katherin Tendrá que pasar varios días en la UCI porque su nivel de saturación de oxígeno es demasiado bajo, debido a los líquidos en sus pulmones. Tenerla en la UCI, nos cuesta 2k por noche. El dinero donado nos ayudará a pagar los gastos que la llevarán a recuperarse.
