My wonderful wife Angela was in need of a kidney transplant when
she suffered not one but 2 strokes. We do have a donor lined up, Angie's is still making some good steady progress. Stroke 1 (March 13) she was recovering from and only in the hospital for 3 weeks. Angie was walking, talking and going about life pretty good. She was getting better at home. Stroke 2 (June 16) was much worse, this one happened in the brain stem area, plus reinjured the first stroke area in the front of her brain. She still has almost equal movement and range on both sides. She communicates by blinking and squeezing her hands. I have not heard her speak for 5 months, or seen her walk in 6 months. Angie has not been home since June 16th, she did visit for a few hours one day then returned to her care center. Yes I have insurance (Altius, Medicare) But they only cover so much for so long and by their standards. Angie also receives some money from Social Security because she is a dialysis patient. Medicaid just denied us. This fundraiser is to help out with Angies's medical bills.
Angie is now living with her parents so her mom can take care of her 24/7.
I will be adding more items and making changes to this post as this progress. I first want to thank those companies/individuals listed below that have donated items for this raffle.
