Help Calista Save Her Leg

Donation protected

I am the mother of Calista. She was in a major car accident on January 31st. She has gone through two surgeries and has been waiting for the third. At first it was thought she would recover to a slight limp with minimal pain. As of today the surgeons have notified us that the best case scenario is amputation. She is 24 years old and has so much life to live. This is devastating for me and my family. 

We have been in touch with the original surgeon since speaking with the current surgery team who thinks amputation is best. The original surgeon has made it known to us that amputation is NOT necessary and that the foot/leg can be saved. 

The only way we can make this happen is by going “out of network” which means going to a surgeon not covered by insurance. 

Please help us in saving Calista’s leg. Anything helps. Thank you so much.
