Story
Jen Baker contracted E.S.B.Ls from the Tunbridge Wells Hospital Pembury .That was 4 years ago , since then she has endured 50 operations, lost part of her arm ,2 thirds of her stomach, at the moment she is fighting yet another infection even though she was only in surgery 4 weeks ago. After 30 operations the hospital called in a councilor to tell Jen and her husband that they did not want to operate anymore . But Jen bravely argued and told the hospital that they gave her this life destroying superbug and if she died on the operating table then at least she would die fighting, ..Your donations however small will help ease the huge financial burden this has placed on this family . Maybe even pay for private health care . Also sharing will shed light and awareness . Someone who sees this could help her, could help stop this superbug that is wreaking havoc and despair to Jens body . This is a post she wrote yesterday as her gaping wound in her tummy gets worse and worse .. It is heartbreaking ..... i have been in bed all day due to the bleeding. Came down to spend time with Joe .I'm just sitting in a chair but I'm in so much pain I could cry. If the hospital could remove the tissue then I would go straight in but all they can do is keep me on total bed rest until London agree to operate. I,m so tired I just want to enjoy Christmas with the kids. I stood up to go to toilet , my clothes ,my blankets were soaked in blood.It was just just streaming down my legs so I couldn't move. The gp said she can admit me to the hospital but I can lay in my own bed .Please everyone can I ask you to pray for strength I don't want to ruin another Christmas with the kids especially when no one can tell us now more my body can cope with
