Medical expenses for my disabled mother in law.
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Chelsea. I am trying to raise funds for my mother in law, Nita Kaiser. She has been very sick the last 3 years and it has taken a lot of time, traveling and doctors appointments to find a diagnosis. She is disabled and unable to work. With overwhelming medical expenses and past due bills I find myself asking for help as her care is ongoing. Her savings are depleted and social security benefits are not covering her monthly expenses. To make matters worse she is currently residing in a motel as her old apartment was full of black mold and could no longer stay there. It takes every penny of her disability check to make this possible. It's hard to save the money that's required to get her into a home because of this. Her children are helping as much as they can, but times are hard. Nita has been diagnosed with lupus, disabling anxiety, cervical dystonia spastic torticollis, parkinsonism, dementia, short term memory loss and hardened connective tissues disease. There is no cure for this disease and she is in constant pain. She requires 24 hour care as she gets confused and begins to wander, she forgets where she is most days. We are still seeking medical attention to find out why she has had chronic headaches for the past year. Also a barium swallow test to look for any blockages as she has been choking for no apparent reason. Her balance is becoming worse by the day, she has a hard time walking and has been falling more often. Physical therapy is our next step! She will need a hospital bed in the near future as she has been falling out of bed as well. My goal is to raise enough funds to get her into a home, take care of her past due medical bills and any future medical needs as she will require more care and supplies as time goes on. Thank you to everyone who has taken time to read this and to anyone who is willing to help. God bless!
