Return to financial stability

Single Parent

Description: Melissa was diagnosed with factor v leiden and a blood clot and pulmanary embolism. Due to her ilness she has to go to the doctor every two weeks for a PT INR and a CBC count. The PT INR is to make sure her blood is in a safe range. Her insurance only covers part of her medical expenses and even though she has insurance she still has to pay high co-pays. Plus, her insurance will not cover things like ultrasounds and frequent testing for blood work. Melissa is a single parent of two beautiful children. She needs help covering some of her medical expenses so she can continue to provide a roof over her children's head and food on the table. What is Factor V Leiden thrombophilia? It is an inherited disorder of blood clotting. Factor V Leiden is the name of a specific mutation (genetic alteration) that results in thrombophilia, or an increased tendency to form abnormal blood clots in blood vessels. People who have the factor V Leiden mutation are at somewhat higher than average risk for a type of clot that forms in large veins in the legs (deep venous thrombosis, or DVT) or a clot that travels through the bloodstream and lodges in the lungs (pulmonary embolism, or PE). Factor V Leiden is the most common inherited form of thrombophilia. Between 3 and 8 percent of the Caucasian (white) U.S. and European populations carry one copy of the factor V Leiden mutation, and about 1 in 5,000 people have two copies of the mutation. The mutation is less common in other populations.

My progress: Need help covering expenses to go see my hematologist to get my blood work done as well as all my regular checkups.

This is a short term need assistance request for a family of 1 adults & 2 children

My message:I am hoping for an angel to help me get this bill paid for so i continue going to the doctor and be here for my children and give them the best life possible! God bless!

Do you have a Catholic Charities in your local area? Have you been to the Dept of Social Services and applied for medicaid?
