My 20 year old cousin has miller fisher syndrome. It's a form of guillain-barre syndrome. Being told she also has guillain-barre syndrome. Her local hospital turned her away twice before she went into cardiac arrest. She's currently in the hospital on a ventilator. They don't know when she will be strang enough to come off of it or even if she will. Im told when she's awake she's alert as of right now. Its a long road ahead of her and I dont even know if recovery is even possible. I also just found out my great uncle died in June 2020. No one knows what happened but they suspect it was his heart. He went in his sleep. No one wanted to tell me because I was pregnant. My other great uncle has dementia. He's never getting better or coming home. One of my cats has lost a ton of weight, we have a vet appointment we can't afford on Wednesday, we are pulling out of what very little remains in our savings. We are 3 months behind on rent. If it weren't for the antidepressants I have no clue where I would be mentally at this point. It feels like everything is closing in as it is but im not on the full dose yet.
