Meet Ray & Alice Rossignol, a couple who lives in western Nebraska. Ray suffers from a severe heart condition & Alice is a multiple brain aneurysm survivor! Your help is greatly appreciated!
From Alice:
"My name is Alice Rossignol. I live in Scottsbluff, NE. In May 2012, I was diagnosed with three aneurysms in my brain. After these aneurysms were discovered, I was immediately sent to the Swedish Hospital in Denver, CO. Because these aneurysms are located in critical positions within my brain, they had to fly in several specialists from California, Florida, and a few other states to handle what they said was a critically unusual case. Out of the three aneurysms they found, they were only able to help me with one, so far, because my medical state is so critial and because they have never seen aneurysms located in these positions in the brain before. I am scheduled for a follow-up in August 2014. At that appointment, they will decide when the next surgery will be if they are able to fix the other two aneurysms, or they will perform emergency surgery, right then and there, if it can't wait. I am very blessed to be alive, because my aneurysms are located in such bad positions for surgery. They aren't able to go through my skull to perform surgery on my brain. So instead, they have to go through my femoral arteries on both sides of my groin to perform surgery on my brain. All of this is a bit hard for me to comprehend and accept, but what makes things even more difficult on me is that they also said I have Dementia. It is only because of the Lord that I have found hope for the future. My first hospital bill after my first surgery was $326,000. Although they did reduce the bill, we still owe the hospital and all of the specialists around $50,000. I do not have any medical insurance, because my husband is on disability due to a severe heart condition, in which he has already had to have four bypass surgeries and can no longer work. His inability to work prevents him from holding a job that offers full benefits with a family medical plan. In addition, I had to quit working due to this unforseen twist in my life, and I do not qualify for medicare, because I am not of age. My husband and I are trying our best to keep our chins up and think positive while maintaining our home and while trying to afford daily living expenses as our medical bills continue to grow. Please understand that we are reaching out to the world for help, because we just can't do this alone. On top of this Fundrazr Campaign, we are also selling our home and everything in it in order to try to help ourselves and keep up with our combined medical bills. If you can find it in your heart to help us, please make your online donation today. Every dollar counts! You can also see a picture of our house and all of the things we are willing to sell by visiting www.mbclighthouse.com/community-corner. Please have us in your thoughts and prayers as you go about your day. May it be God's will for me to a lliving and breathing testimony for many years to come. And, thanks for taking time to read my story. May God bless you and keep you safe!"
