Help Support Heather Smith

Help Support Heather and read about her healing journey here.



"Heather Smith's family and friends are uniting to raise money to help with her unexpected and serious medical condition. Support her now!

On June 3rd Heather was admitted to Mission Hospital in Asheville, NC with severe Diverticulitis which had formed a large intestinal abscess that had also surrounded her bladder, uterus, left ovary, with severe inflammation and infection. Once this happened a life-threatening condition known as sepsis was diagnosed. At this point a tube was inserted for drainage of infection and fluids that had formed around other organs. A week later, a large hematoma was found by ultrasound around her ovary and a stomach tube was inserted for drainage of this. She has been on IV antibiotics since admission and drainage tubes for the abcess. They have not found out how to treat her yet with continued white blood cell counts being high, fever and as of now Pneumonia also.
I want to thank all that are praying for her, sent flowers and visited.
My name is Cindy Martin, Sam's Mom and as Heather calls me MeeMaw (lol), and I have set up this donation site to try and help since I am 7 hrs away! It is to help her since she can not work, some major medical expenses (which are out of pocket due to the Insurance changes in Jan.), cost of living for home expenses that go on even if you are sick and we still don't know how they are going to treat her or even if they may move her to Duke. It is all still up in the air and we are going day to day.
Heather is a very sick young lady needing all of our prayers and help! Let's help take some stress from Heather and her family by donating out of love for her~
Much love for Heather,
Cindy M~ (Sam's Mom and Heather's MeeMaw as she calls me, lol)"

We love you so much, Heather. Get well soon! - Your Adorn Family
