Personal message
My sister Mel, a devoted mom and wife, faces a sudden challenge.
Diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome on 01/12/2023, she experiences paralysis in her legs and arms. Her husband, a worker on oil rigs in Angola, is often away. Mel, a Supermom, and her girls need support.
Guillain-Barre is an autoimmune condition with no cure, but treatments like plasma exchange offer hope. Recovery may take months to years, involving physical therapy and adaptive devices.
We're new to this and uncertain about medical costs. Although they do have medical aid in place, we need finance for the medical expenses not covered by the medical aid.
Keep Mel and her family in your prayers for a full recovery.
Your support is appreciated. Blessings to you all.
With gratitude,
Liz Stain (Mel's sister)
