Trancista Thais Medeiros de Oliveira, 25, is in serious condition after having new infections. The young woman’s mother, Adriana Medeiros, said that the family was looking forward to Thais’ medical discharge, which had to be postponed due to her worsening health condition.
The expectation of Thais’ family was that she would be discharged in the next few days. The young woman has been hospitalized since February 17 after smelling pepper and having an intense allergic reaction.
“Once again we are not going home, her discharge forecast would be for the 14th [de junho], but let’s continue with faith. Thank you for your prayers and help,” Adriana said in a video posted on social media.
The young woman’s mother reported that she is recovering from a urine infection and a fungus that appeared after her last surgery. To receive Thais at home, the family must set up a kind of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on site.
Thais’ relatives even created a crowdfunding online to pay for the young woman’s treatment shortly after discharge. According to Adriana, the young woman’s family is currently supported by her husband’s salary, who works in internet sales.
Thais is hospitalized at the Rehabilitation and Readaptation Center (Crer) in Goiânia, capital of Goiás. The young woman had cerebral edema after smelling goat pepper preserves during a family lunch on February 17.
