UPDATE JESS HAS BEEN ADMITTED AGAIN TO CGH.
everyone
I want to thank everyone who has donated and those that continue to !! Your help is so appreciated! God bless you all!!!I am Jessica’s Mom Terrie,
On February 24th Jessica had a follow up Ct scan because she has been experiencing health issues including numbness in her left side of my head face arm and torso.
She was called a few hours later and told to return to er to be admitted immediately as she has suspected encephalitis in her brain and black lesions in the bottom area of the brain.
For weeks she has been experiencing stiff neck numbness , head aches , vision loss , nausea, fevers , and extreme night sweats , brain feeling wavy , when walking feeling like the floor was soft and unbalanced often.
While admitted they ran more tests but nothing came to surface.
AT mri on thursday she was
cleared that the swelling was no longer visible.
The doctors released her I believe prematurely to follow up with nuerology due to lack of beds and imminent danger signs subsiding.
Since being home symptoms have been worse. she cant lift head from pillow with out vomiting , neck is extremely stiff and constant unmanageable migraine , the numbness is back.
The doctor in Er has mentioned that her stress levels being at an ultimate high is not helping .
As a self employed Mom of three My daughter Is facing extreme hardship financially and has no source of income to rely on while healing for the unforeseeable future.
As hard as it is to reach out to friends and our community I have to make this to help with the home bills and for her salon to stay open while she cant work.
Thank you everyone who has reached out to send flowers and well wishes! Please share if you can! Thank you all for helping
