Wheelchair

Donation protected
I suffer from Crohn's Disease. 3 years ago I had a second surgery and it went very wrong. I ended up with multiple fistulas and almost died. Since then I've had an uphill battle with my health. I have a permanent fistula, a port in my chest for daily 12 hour TPN Infusions to get the nutrition and calories I need to survive. I also have gallstones, short gut, and constantly in and out of the hospital with infections and blockages. The only solution for this is a complete intestinal transplant because my intestines are failing. I've hit the point where I'm only allowed liquid foods, solids can't pass through my system. I've become weaker as the days go on and using only a cane to walk is becoming more difficult. My doctor said it would be a very smart idea to invest in a custom wheelchair to fit my needs to get around. That's where I come to a block in the road. My insurance doesn't cover fully cover it and I have to pay part. I'm on a fixed income from disability and already have piles of medical bills and personal bills as is, now I'm stuck with this. I need any help I can get so I can finally get this wheelchair so I can get around easier and be able to go out as do things with my family, especially since warmer weather is apon us. I do not want to be stuck in a bed inside, I want to be able to get into my wheelchair and go outside and go places with my family. Please, anything you can do to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much
