Fans of “Alaskan Bush People” are facing distressing news as Snowbird Brown, one of the show’s stars, recently revealed that her brother, Matt Brown, has been hospitalized. Snowbird shared the update through an emotional video on Instagram, detailing the challenges the Brown family is currently enduring.
Matt Brown’s Health Crisis
Matt Brown, 40, has been admitted to the hospital after contracting a severe cold that developed into pneumonia. The Brown family, who relocated from Alaska to Washington for better access to medical facilities, still finds themselves far from adequate healthcare. This distance has added to the strain, especially after their father, Billy Brown, passed away from a stroke due to delayed medical assistance.
Family Struggles with Health Issues
Snowbird Brown herself has faced significant health challenges. She recently underwent surgery to remove large tumors from her ovaries, a procedure that required her to travel a considerable distance from their remote mountain home. Additionally, Bear Brown and his wife Raven are expecting their third child and have moved to Texas to be nearer to a neonatal intensive care unit, highlighting the family’s ongoing struggle with healthcare access in their Washington location.
Current Situation
In her Instagram video, Snowbird explained that a severe cold has been circulating in Washington. She described her own experience with the illness, noting that she was unable to keep anything down. Unfortunately, Matt contracted the same cold, which escalated into pneumonia by Friday, necessitating his emergency admission to a nearby larger town’s hospital.
Snowbird informed fans that Matt is currently receiving antibiotics and is under the care of nurses and doctors. However, due to her own illness, she is unable to visit him to avoid worsening his condition. Despite these challenges, Snowbird assured fans that Matt is improving and promised to keep everyone updated on his progress.
Ongoing Support and Updates
The Brown family’s situation underscores the importance of accessible healthcare, especially for those living in remote areas. Fans of “Alaskan Bush People” continue to offer their support and well-wishes for Matt’s recovery and the family’s well-being. Snowbird’s commitment to keeping the public informed is a testament to the family’s resilience and the strong bond they share with their audience.
Stay tuned for further updates on Matt Brown’s condition and other developments from the Brown family.
