Unexpected hospital costs
Donation protected
Hi my name is Alyssa, I am trying to help my cousin Heather take care of her mom. In short, Heather has been off work for the last 2 years with medical problems of her own. She was full caregiver to her mother who was suffering from dementia. 2 months ago, Heathers mom took a fall and broke her hip. Her short stay in the hospital became a long one, now unable to come back home. Hospital bills, medications, gas, and other costs are adding up very quickly. Unfortunately Heather needs a bit of extra help. Heather has been informed her mother is on a waiting list for long term care, but is told that could take upwards of 2 years. This means her mom will need 24 hour care and will not be released from the hospital. It is now a daily charge for the hospital stay.
A bit of background on Heather- she helps her community always there to lend a hand. Much like her mom Isabel. She pushes herself to the limits to help wherever she can. Now she needs our help. Anything will help. I know times are hard for everyone right now, but every little bit helps. Please help me help Heather, and help her mom Isobel.
