Support for Leandra and family Campaign

 

 

On Sunday(22 October 2023), she started losing feeling in her hands and feet, while experiencing severe pain in her back and neck - to the extent that she struggled to talk and swallow. After being admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Leandra was given strong pain medication and sedatives to stabilise her and manage the pain as much as possible. 

 

On Monday(23 October 2023), Leandra stopped breathing by herself, necessitating that she be placed on a ventilator. Her blood pressure readings were extremely high, which meant that the doctors could not take her out of sedation. Currently, the doctor strongly suspects that she has Guillain–Barré Syndrome (GBS), and has started the appropriate treatments - which includes dialysis.

 

However, they can't make a  final diagnosis while she is on a ventilator. Furthermore, she cannot stay on the ventilator for longer than is absolutely necessary due to the increased risk of associated infection. 

 

Leandra is still very critical, but we believe there will be full recovery because we serve a God of healing. We know there are people around the world praying for her, and we deeply appreciate all the prayers we can get.

 

 

Therefore, this account was created to give everyone who cares about her or wants to help a chance to help the family (financially).
