Help give Vasa her life back

Donation protected
Last year in October, my sister Vasa, single mother to 4 year old Kristina, suffered a debilitating tear in her right vertebral artery leading up to her brain that caused many complications, starting with a series of mini strokes, major headaches and neck pain. Following doctors orders, she was not allowed to work, lift anything 20 pounds or more, exercise or even move her head too fast in any direction as to avoid a major stroke. It took almost a full YEAR of this for the tear to heal. The news was the happiest we had gotten all of 2020, which as you all know hasn’t been the greatest... Just as she had left with her daughter to Wenatchee to start a new life, she suffered another tear on the left side of the neck now that is more severe than the first, and so rare that the odds of this happening twice are less than one percent. Now, sadly, we are back at square one... only with more rules to abide by since the risk is greater this time. She can no longer work, be active, or live freely of stress and fear, which has taken an immense toll on her mental health. She is in a lot of pain and high risk for a stroke and brain bleed, especially within the next 6 weeks. So far the doctors aren’t sure what’s going on, so she is seeing multiple specialists for this and will need extensive testing that can get very expensive, and the pandemic assistance she has been battling with for months on end has not been reliable. She is currently staying with a childhood friend and is in need of help.  We are devastated, and desperate to figure this out and get her back on track to living her life. Anything her friends can do would be greatly appreciated, including prayers. Thank you in advance.
