Help Ellie with Medical Bills & Medications
Donation protected
Hi Everyone,
First, I’d like to thank everyone who has helped me get through the past 35 days I spent in the hospital.
I’ve returned home after finally being cleared by Ortho & staff to be able to live at home.
I have been attempting to receive Medicaid for the past 3 years getting denied over and over. Now, I find myself in terrible need.
I am Home with a hospital bed rental, a wheel chair rental, and medical equipment rentals. My prescriptions have to be paid out of pocket as well as more medical equipment to help me shower and live a somewhat normal life with my four children.
I was admitted to the hospital on Dec 3rd after visiting a chiropractor thinking I needed an adjustment. Come to find out 2 weeks later I have a terrible spinal cord Injury. My cervical spine is the worst, with flattening, stenosis, multiple disc herniated and osteoarthritis along the entire spine. My spine is slowly deteriorating from the neck down to my hips.
My lumbar line has two herniated discs with minimal fluid from TH12-L1 and L3-L5 & down to my Sacrum I have no discs whatsoever causing my vertebral column to slowly push against each other causing me multiple and sometimes massive muscle spams that look like seizures.
I am wheelchair-bound for a while until my Medicaid kicks in within 30-90 days, which means I cannot see a neurologist, neurosurgeon, primary care, or anyone leaving me to rely on my medications until I can get insured. This is causing my family a lot of financial stress.
I'm not a prideful woman, but a very vulnerable one at the moment and could use some help, if your heart seems to be willing.
If you cannot help me financially, please pray for my family especially my husband who has had to endure this major life change since the beginning of this all. He is my only caregiver at the moment as I am very incapable to do much. Except sit, talk, and give a smile to my beautiful four kids.
I pray God blesses you ten fold for your kindness and generosity.
Love,
Ellie
