Troubled time: Blac Chyna’s assistant Lorena ‘Patty’ Hernandez (R) has fallen ill, leading a friend to set up a GoFundMe page for her that Tyga and Rob Kardashian have given to
‘It’s really heartbreaking and everybody is trying to help out as much as possible right now, especially Chyna,’ the rep told the paper.
The campaign to assist Hernandez, a mother-of-three, with medical costs and other expenses was set up by her friend Julia Pacheco, who said in a lengthy statement on the GoFundMe page that ‘in a moment like this, any contribution makes a difference.’
Hernandez, who’d appeared on Chyna’s former E! reality show Rob & Chyna, was felled by a severe brain hemorrhage on December 18 while she was at Chyna’s Encino, California salon Lashed, sources told The Blast, adding that Hernandez was five months into a pregnancy.
Hernandez was immediately taken to Cedars Sinai Medical Center and subsequently placed in the ICU, where she was stabilized, sources told the website.
‘After a [CT scan] and a couple of days, Patty was finally stable and [doctors] advised to terminate her pregnancy,’ which she did December 28, amid fears the pregnancy left her susceptible to permanent disability or death, Pacheco said.

Hernandez was left in a coma January 11, Pacheco said, after she suffered ‘a seizure which caused her brain to bleed again.’
Pacheco said that Hernandez’s tragic health decline kicked up in July of 2017, after ‘she suffered a stroke that left her partially blind,’ that doctors said was the result of a condition called a arteriovenous malformation.
According to Pacheco, Hernandez was told at that time to cease working, terminate her pregnancy and undergo radiation therapy, as surgery was not an option; Hernandez did not, amid an uncertainty of the treatment’s efficacy, and financial concerns with ‘her [three] kids depending on her.’
