Emergency Commissiosn
Hey guys, I’m about to open up Emergency commissions. My eight year old son, Zane, has had to have some blood work done recently. Today I finally heard back from his doctor. Hopefully I’ll be able to put this into words right.
They ran tests on his Immunoglobulin levels after I expressed concerns over how often he gets sick. We have Rheumatoid Arthritis on both my side, and my husbands side of the family. For those of you who don’t know what this is, it’s an auto-immune disease which can affect many different parts of the body. Essentially your own immune system attacks your own body tissue by mistake. It can affect the skin, eyes, lungs, heart and blood vessels, as well as the linings of the joints, causing swelling and inflammation.
My Father-in-law suffered from it and I watched him suffer for years before his untimely passing in 2014. It took SO much from him. His ability to draw and paint (which was his livelihood), his ability to walk and stand up straight. He was eventually unable to talk, and couldn’t speak above a whisper due to complications with several medications they had put him on. He barely weighed 80 lbs, because he couldn’t keep food down most days. It can do A LOT of harm. Not all cases are this bad, however. He was diagnosed after it had gotten really bad.
My mother, also, was recently diagnosed with RA and is currently going through treatment options.
Anyways,l requested we have some tests ran, just to make sure everything was checking out okay with Zane. Apparently, most of the tests came back normal, but his Immunoglobulin levels are low and they want me to take him to Children’s hospital in Columbus soon for more testing. The problem is, we won’t have insurance soon, and we simply can’t afford it. But he NEEDS to get these tests done. He may even need transfusions of some sort (I wasn’t clear on this part, however, so I’m not sure what kind?) and I’m trying anything and everything I can to raise some extra money to hopefully help with this.
If you enjoy my art, please, PLEASE consider commissioning me. I’m flexible and can work out pricing if need be. Anything helps at this point. If you can’t commission me, please help spread the word!
I’ll be putting up commission info here soon with examples and prices once I’m finished getting everything together.
