Andrew Taylor Wallace was found unresponsive in Colquitt, Ga after being life flighted to southeast medical center in Dothan, Alabama he went into cardiac arrest causing a anoxic brain injury which lead his wife Allison Wallace on a journey hoping to change laws and educate congress on anoxic brain injuries.The only way is through awareness through networking with the support group anoxic brain injury CareGivers of Facebook. Sign petitions as there available and donate to individual families. Six months into the Journey he lived in the hospital at Phoebe Putney with no state help from medicaid or Social Security because the system has failed to aknowledge the need for rehabilitation. After several more months passed by towards October or November Social security finally awarded him. He was sent two hours away around this time frame to Fitzgerald Ga to a skilled nursing home the life care center and began to perish slowly but surely due to organ damage internally from malnourished body. There needs to be more nutritional based dietary supplement for #anoxicbraininjury. The CDC currently doesn't count the survivors of this condition. Not many insurance company said will pay for any needed help. Turn Andrew is survived by three daughters the eldest stepdaughter Sven Richardson 14 , Anita Lyla 11, and Anna Marie Sheffield 9 and his youngest son Tony Gage Richardson 8. The life care center had a very compassionate team of nurses and are recommended , but still if he could have been closer to family , had physical therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, a neurologist available , the functional formula would we see improved cognitive ablities? I know we would have. Look into Google scholer, research it. In the beginning the first hospital in Dothan rushed him into a nursing home out of CCU he was septic, a bed sore that only grew until it got acintobactor a infectious disease of bacteria and fungi from iraq. He was in the first hospital a few weeks and made me think we had to rush into a peg tube and TPN should have been tried a week or two more and rush into the trachea but he didn't need oxygen on his last few months but we couldn't get it removed - Allison. This day Andrew the former drummer, hoist and crane service group employee and husband , father and brother went into cardiac arrest and into a vegetated state but continued to communicate in small gestures especially with wife , mother and children and grandmother through eyes , motions and music helped stayed in this journey until 1 year,1 month and 1 days and 9 hours and passed away.
