Theresa Pol Medical help to save my moms life
Donation protected
My Mom, Theresa Pol, is fighting for her life! As you may know, she has been extremely ill for the last decade. What you may not know, she has experienced even greater challenges in the last three years. She has been diagnosed with heart failure due to her immune system attacking her heart. We have taken the necessary steps and applied to NIH (National Institute of Health). We just found out that she been accepted into the NIH to see the top doctors that treat rare illnesses. To be accepted into this program, is a miracle since they only accept a limited number each year. I am asking for your help to raise the funding necessary to save her life. It is a long process involving medical expenses such as tests, doctor visits, and more. They will cover the doctors visits, labs, MRI's, biopsies and all other tests, but she is required to provide travel, hotel, food, and medications that insurance does not cover. If any additional funds remain following the trial process they will be applied to ongoing care and medications. These expenses are expected to exceed $80,000. We are thankful for any support that you can offer!
We are encouraged by this opportunity to give her some of her quality of life back, so her and dad can grow old together and watch their grandson grow.
These are some of the medical diagnoses she has been living with and this is an opportunity to have fresh eyes looking at her.

--Behcets disease (a rare inflammatory disease of the blood vessels) that cause painful sores in her eyes, nose, mouth and more)
