Dear FR-Friend:

Wish I could have helped you more than the little I did. Prayers go with you!

Threat Matrix List, too.

This afternoon, MestaMachine was hospitalized for further treatment. She borrowed a laptop for the duration, and may be able to check FR from time to time.

Here is her latest note:

"Can’t crack the 95 pound barrier no matter what I do.

"There has been no change at all in my blood situation. Received one fresh unit Thursday, so doing a little better. Was getting bad though. Kept seeing white squigglies and having dizzy spells.

"In the Hospital, first they will build me up, then two surgeries, 1- a bowel resection, and 2- removal of a duodenal ulcer that isn’t responding to treatment; the pain is unbelievable sometimes.

"They have tried different medications but nothing worked and the ulcer keeps growing. My stomach goes into spasms and then I can barely move. I get dehydrated and the leg cramps are horrible. I drink Gater Ade by the quarts. The only thing left is surgery, and they will do a biopsy.

"The bowel resection is for lesions in my upper bowel caused by the immense amount of medication I have to take for everything else including my heart and my lungs. "Don’t have any idea how long I'll be hospitalized. First they have to build me up so they can operate, then build me BACK up again before I can come home.

"The good news is if this succeeds, they can put me back on the heart transplant list. ... Don’t know how long that will take, but the recovery time is usually over a year. Not looking forward to any of this except if it isn’t done, I am done for sure."

MestaMachine needs our Prayers, - and on her FR page, she asks for financial help. ... Here we have a Military Veteran asking for financial help to cover medical expenses (caused by war wounds.) The cost of her medications alone would break a bank. Previously, drs have treated her for everything from being shot and left to die... to setting every major bone in her body... caused by the ROP almost succeeding in beating her to death. Mesta also has additional concerns for her five year old child.

Or send checks to FReeper Springfield Reformer who will forward money to her... contact him for further information.

Mesta, we love you and you're in our Prayers.
