A little girl Ashley is suffering from a Pseudomonas infection. Pseudomonas infections can make one very sick if they spread through the bloodstream. A serious infection can cause symptoms of high fever, chills, confusion, and shock. Unfortunately as in Ashley's case it can spread throughout the body. She is receiving treatment, but mounting medical expenses are draining the family financially. the family is trying to raise $6,000 to cover medical cost is is just about $1,500 away from that goal. Please help them reach it! George Cook African American Reports.
This is a story about my dear friend Louner and his precious daughter Ashley.
On October 21, 2009 a perfect little girl was born. With ten little fingers, ten little toes, and her health in hand, Ashley’s parents were proud of God’s gift. But, 4 months later a “pimple” developed on Ashley’s nose. Her parents took Ashley to the hospital and were given the heart breaking news that the “pimple” on her nose was Pseudomonas.
Pseudomonas is a bacteria that can be found soil, water, and plants. Usually, the bacteria do not cause infection in healthy people. However, this organism will cause a disease when a person’s immune system is already impaired. Pseudomonas infections can make one very sick if they spread through the bloodstream. A serious infection can cause symptoms of high fever, chills, confusion, and shock. For patients who are already very ill, they can die from the Pseudomonas infection.
Antibiotics are currently being used to treat the Ashley’s symptoms to stop the spread of infections to other parts of her body, but are becoming too expensive for her family. Her parents are doing the best they can as they are struggling financially to afford Ashley’s care. Moreover, because of Ashley’s condition, surgery is needed to remove the infected tissue and stop the spread of the bacteria to other parts of her face and body.
Please help support Ashely so she her family can afford the surgery she desperately needs and give Ashley a chance to live her life dreams.
Together, through prayers and donations we can help change Ashley’s future. As a giving community “We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust the sails.” Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
