Battling Cystic Fibrosis her whole life Jess has learned the ultimate goal is to make the best of every moment and be happy and kind.
In October Jess was diagnosed with Mog-antibody disease. It’s a rare auto immune disease affecting 1:100,000 people. Mogad is under the same umbrella as Multiple Sclerosis. Having CF, and an NTM lung infection makes treatment more complicated. She will be getting IViG infusions once a month to begin. Her neurologist said because it’s a form of immunosuppressive therapy she couldn’t work due to the infection risk and her lung situation at the moment. It was a sudden diagnosis and recommendation to not work. Medical expenses, regular bills, and the cost to go to Denver for her doctors appointments is adding up quickly. Beginning of the year copays for her infusions, strong antibiotics, and hotel costs to stay over night in Denever frequently to get all her diagnosis’s working together costs are adding up quickly!
Though she is trying to do it on her own her health keeps giving her set backs. When I heard her tell me she is to the point financially she may have to give up fighting for her health to pay her bills my heart broke. Which is why I set this fundraiser up!
thank y’all!!
