Help us get Erica her Medical Supplies
Donation protected
- Hi friends and family! My name is Erica and I am raising funds for all of my medical expenses. I have been hospitalized from the end of January through mid-March and then again at the end of April, struggling with Gastroparesis. I have needed to transition to life with a feeding tube: first a Gj-peg tube and now a mic-key GJ button to help live a better and more nourished life. Unfortunately, I am limited to Medicaid, and Medicaid refuses to pay for necessary medical supplies in order for me to access my feeding tube to receive adequate nutrition. With this fundraiser, the hope is to raise money to obtain necessary equipment such as extension sets (this is crucial to be able to push medicines and run feeds), formula, feeding bags, split gauze, medical tape, syringes, etc. The price of these items are insurmountable out of pocket, and I have not been able to work throughout these huge medical transitions.
I also struggle with endometriosis, Sjögren's, dysautonomia, mitochondrial disease, asthma, food allergies, MCAS, Ehlers-Danlos, IBD (left-sided colitis), and pelvic floor dysfunction. It has been a rough couple of months and this would take the extra burden off to make living a little more bearable.
