We are making progress, our girl is now having physio therapy sessions and acupuncture therapy 3 times a week. We're walking every day for 20 minutes and her body's stability has improved.
Her voice sounds stronger after her acupuncture sessions.
We're doing our best to continue this journey.
That recovery center would be a blessing for her since they provide hydrotherapy,speech therapy, ergo therapy and other rehab options. Hopefully we will manage to raise the money needed.
Her name is Maria, she's 35 and her situation goes like this, in April of 2020 she has had a brain surgery for a benign tumor removal(Meningioma), after that she was put in intensive care for 3 weeks.She was in the hospital for 3 and a half months, but the nightmare was just about to start for her family and friends, she was evaluated by the national health ministry(IKA) with 85% handicap, in other words her face is half paralyzed,lost 40% of her eyesight she lost reflexes on her body's entire left side(she's left handed),the right side of her body has lost sense of pain,cold,or hot. She hardly swallows , she have no voice and she can only go outside assisted.Friends and family have helped raising money for her many recovery therapies like logo therapy, physiotherapy,voice interventions,medical treatments and I, as a mom, understand this was a big brain tumor as she was lucky to live considering there is still tumor left and I'm grateful for all the support we have received from everyone along the way.It's been really hard to cope with these many sudden disabilities and bills.I think she believes she has become a burden to everyone around her considering she have to have someone to take her to every doctor's appointments, therapy sessions, examinations and the chaos of the pandemic only made it worse.But she's trying to stay strong and positive and keep pushing forward to get back on her feet again,constantly searching for solutions, so I'm taking this chance to write to you and hopefully we will get the help we're so desperate for at this point.She will have to undergo at least one surgery for re-connection of the trigeminal nerve, eye surgery cornea/iris transplant, inability to close her left eyelid needing a barium insert made of platinum on the upper eyelid and get into a recovery and rehabilitation center for mobility therapies that requires 9000€ a month, she will need at least a year at the recovery center.
Medical expenses have already reached over 2500€ so I was encouraged to give it a try and write about what I'm going through on this platform, any amount counts a lot to us.I hope we will be able to find kind people that can help my daughter with any amount in this trying times.
I am forever grateful for all the help.Thank you!
