Alyssa Landrith's Burial Expenses

This beautiful girl lost her life to starvation Friday evening November 6, 2015.  She was eighteen years old.  She had Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome and Gastroparesis, both rare digestive conditions that my daughter also is battling.   Her name is Alyssa Landrith.  Her mom is Lori Landrith.

This picture was taken before the illness set in. She has slowly starved to death. She continued to get sicker, while medical institutions diagnosed her with psychological conditions (which were secondary to the digestive conditions).  Her mother, a single mom, drained her bank account and went deep into debt while struggling to help her daughter.

I'm setting up this page in order to help her with the burial expenses, which will cost at least 6,000.  Anything remaining will be put toward the medical bills.

My anger over her death is impossible to contain. Maybe if she had been treated from the beginning... if she had been given ALL possible tests from the beginning, even the expensive tests... maybe if she hadn't been told she was crazy...

Please help spread awareness of the "rare" medical conditions like Gastroparesis and Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome. They are not really so rare... many are misdiagnosed. Many die.

The very least we can do is help this mother out as best as we can.  No one should have to bury their child.
