DANVILLE, Ill. (WAND) - A community is rallying together to honor a woman who suffered a recent stroke.

Kim Wells-Wright suffered a stroke on November 16 and was hospitalized since. Friends and family say she spent about 70 days in the hospital.

"She had 3 major brain surgeries and still has to have another one."

The medical expenses have been piling up and while Kim is finally home, it has taken a toll on her family.

"Her husband had to take time off of work as well to be there during her recovery," she said.

Kim Wells-Wright has to have 24 hour care at this time. 

A benefit will be held for her Sunday at 1 p.m. at Sarge's Tap in Danville. Everyone in the community is welcome to attend.
