"After preparing a frozen hamburger patty from a major retailer, I became extremely ill. The following day, after experiencing vomiting, dehydration and diarrhoea, Porkchop was rushed via ambulance to Antelope Valley Medical Center, where she spent a week bedridden and enduring test after test as medical professionals attempted to uncover what was wrong."
"Doctors later confirmed that she had suffered from Hyponatremia, Acute Kidney Injury, Atrial Fibrillation and Hypertension. Hyponatremia occurs when sodium in the blood drops to dangerously low levels, while an Acute Kidney Injury often occurs in conjunction with other illnesses and prevents the kidneys from working correctly."
"Although I am expected to make a full recovery, the journey ahead will be challenging. I am slowly relearning how to walk, and ongoing physical therapy is essential to help me rebuild my strength. She explained that one of the key reasons behind her decision to raise funds on GoFundMe was so she could purchase a medical mobility scooter."
