(CNN) A hospital nurse in New York who was on the frontlines treating patients while pregnant is now fighting for her life after contracting Covid-19. Sylvia LeRoy's family is asking the public for help after they say insurance denied full coverage of her rehabilitation treatment following an emergency c-section and virus-related coma. LeRoy was sent home from the hospital with some antibiotics, but a few days later she was back and tested positive for coronavirus, Licin said. The family improved and LeRoy started doing better as well, but then Licin got a call from her sister's doctor saying she was coding. The family hopes a GoFundMe will make up the difference for a nurse who wanted to make a difference working at a hospital serving an underprivileged area, Licin said.
