UPDATE 10/12: Kerry is still waiting for Medicaid to make a decision! Her case worker told us that Medicaid office has 45 days to decide and it's been 66. The bureaucracy is mind numbing. We're very grateful for the thoughts, prayers and generosity of so many. For now, we wait.
My daughter had six strokes last year and is now paralyzed on her left side. She lives in Virginia and was qualified for Medicaid last year, but was denied this year because her family income exceeded the limit by a few hundred dollars. She has reapplied twice and is waiting for the next decision.
Right now she has no insurance. She takes prescription medications and needs physical therapy, but she doesn't have transportation to get to her appointments. She also needs home health care help with basic needs, eating, getting dressed, and using the bathroom.
Her husband recently lost his job, and she is unable to work. We are asking for help to cover her medical costs, medications, and the support she needs while we wait for her Medicaid decision to come through. Your support would mean so much to our family during this difficult time.
