Benjamin’s Colostomy Reversal

Donation protected

EDIT : we’ve been in and out of the ER and hospital. He has been diagnosed with NEC or necrotizing enterocolitis; which is essentially swelling of both his large and small intestines. His stitches closed in on themselves with no where for the waste to go and we are at a loss. We’ve been in and out of the hospital 4 times now.. please help with whatever you can.. the bills are coming and hitting us like a freight train.. 


Hello everyone! My name is Mikayla, I have a BEAUTIFUL baby boy named Benjamin, he is 9months old and has a Colostomy Bag. This is the result of Hirschsprungs Disease at birth. Essentially what it is; we all have a certain cell in our large intestine that tells us when we have to go to the bathroom. My son did not have that cell so instead of expelling waste as we all do, he underwent surgery to find the cell in his intestine which ended him with a colostomy bag! But now that he has grown so much and able to grow more intestine it’s time to reconnect! We are hoping that insurance will cover most of it, but his last surgery it didn’t and we are still on payment plans for that. This is a long shot, but we will be in the hospital for upwards of two weeks and I know the bill won’t be cheap. This will also help us with the bills that will start to pile up while we are in the hospital. Please Help us help our son
