Our daughter Ashley was recently hospitalized for a week after a small lesion was found on her brain stem, which doctors are saying was a stroke but is still unclear. They want to do a follow-up MRI in 3 months to see if the lesion changes or if more lesions show up. This could help indicate if this was caused by a stroke, MS, or another condition not yet identified. She may have more MRIs in the future. She will undergo physical therapy for several weeks to get her strength back. Her neurologist has written her out of work until September as she is unable to work due to balance issues and weakness on her right side. Ashley is going unpaid for two weeks until short-term disability kicks in; then it’s only 60% of her regular pay while on disability.
We’re hoping to help raise money to help offset some of the money she will be losing while out on disability and also help pay her medical bills and physical therapy.
We are lucky she was able to come home and not go into a rehab facility. Her kids really needed their mom home. Everyone’s thoughts and prayers have been so helpful as Ashley goes through this difficult time.
Any donation (big or small) will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!❤️
