With travel expenses for Kilie’s family

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Breann Barnett. My 31 year old sister, Kilie is currently in University Hospital in Columbia, MO. She went in to our local ER on Sunday thinking she had bronchitis again. She was having troubles breathing. They quickly found out that she has a massive tumor growing on her thyroid that is crushing her trachea. They intubated her & air lifted her to Columbia. The plan is to biopsy the mass to see if it is cancerous. The results will take 5-7 days to come back. Kilie will be intubated & sedated until those results come back & they decide how to proceed. She is also running a fever now. They drew labs to find out where the infection is coming from & have started her on antibiotics. Kilie has no insurance at this time, but the case manager at the hospital is helping getting her approved for Medicaid. I hate to even have to make this GoFund me, but my family & I live almost 2 hours from Columbia & are having to take off work to travel back and forth. Please don’t feel obligated to donate! Prayers are definitely appreciated. ❤️

Update 3/28/2024: They performed an open biopsy yesterday afternoon & say the results should be back in about a week. She now has aspiration pneumonia & is complaining of pain in her left leg. They’re going to be doing an ultrasound to see if she has a blood clot. Please continue to pray. ❤️
