Medical Expenses for Michele Young

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Michele and I'm fundraising to help pay my medical bills. Almost two weeks ago, I walked into work and passed out. My boss called 911 and I was taken to the hospital ER. The hospital ran 3 CT scans and found 7 blood clots in both my lungs. They also found 2 masses on my thyroid. I was then transported to another hospital. That hospital performed a pulmonary thrombectomy and removed some blood clots and busted up a very big one. I was in ICU for 3 days and then moved to a regular room. I was on a Heparin (blood thinner) drip at the hospital. I am home now. I still have some blood clots left (I don't know how many). I have to take Eliquis (blood thinner) for 6 months and the doctors will do another CT scan and see how many blood clots are left. They say I may be on a blood thinner for the rest of my life. I am waiting for the doctor to schedule an appointment for biopsies on the 2 masses on my thyroid. Also, the blood clots strained the right side of my heart. So I have some damage on that side. Knowing I still have blood clots, I walk around feeling like a ticking time bomb.

So, I am asking for help to pay my medical bills. They include 2 different hospitals and 2 ambulance rides. Any help would be greatly appreciated and so would prayers.
