Jenny couldn’t wait for her Mom to meet her firstborn. So she flew her in from the Congo and within days she fell ill and was hospitalized. She was placed on machines and medications to try and save her life but didn’t realize at that time it might be at the expense of her limbs. Jenny’s Mom is a live thanks to the ECMO machine and vasopressors but she now has to learn to live without all four limbs. Jenny and her sisters are hoping their Moms story will help save others from the same fate.
