Woman gets very ill on honeymoon, is stranded in Cancun before getting back into U.S.

PITTSBURGH — A Pittsburgh woman is finally back in the United States after she became very ill while on her honeymoon in Cancun.

She and her husband are Hampton High School sweethearts, and got married on July 4th.

Christine is finally back in the United States after falling incredibly ill on their honeymoon in Cancun, Mexico.

She is now in a Florida hospital. Courtney Stinebiser — the maid of honor — said treatment in Mexico was getting complicated with insurance issues.

People from Pittsburgh and all over the country donated more than $50,000 to a GoFundMe page for Christine.

“It’s absolutely incredible to know that however many miles away back in Pittsburgh there are people who are thinking of us and wanting us to get Christine home and who are willing to make donations to make that happen,” her husband Matt Roth explained.

And Courtney — who is flying back to Florida tomorrow — is crediting the community and donations from all over the country, to getting her best friend back in the U.S.

She said the next step is getting Christine back home to Pittsburgh. While there is no telling when that will be at this point, she is hoping it will be soon.
