Help Hailey Upgrade Her Wheelchair and Pay Medical Bills

Donation protected
Hi there, I’m Hailey. I'm 22 years old, and I need your help.


I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user, and as my disability progresses, I’m facing more and more challenges: physically, emotionally, and financially. I need your help.

Thanks to a generous donor, my wheelchair upgrades are pretty much fully covered (which is such a relief!). However, I’m still in urgent need of support for growing medical expenses. On May 28, 2025, I was admitted to the hospital due to severe hip and leg pain, along with general leg weakness. These issues are forcing me to transition to full-time wheelchair use instead of the part-time usage we originally anticipated. I’m currently undergoing further testing and treatment, and unfortunately, the medical bills are already stacking up.

For context, I’ve been diagnosed with several chronic and complex health conditions including:
  • Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), a rare genetic connective tissue disorder that causes joint instability, chronic pain, fatigue, and more
  • A severe form of Diabetes that requires insulin management and around the clock monitoring (expensive, even with insurance!)
  • Possible autoimmune disease and/or neurological condition which we’re still investigating through ongoing testing

Navigating this many medical hurdles at once on Marketplace insurance has been absolutely overwhelming, especially at my age.


If you’re able to donate or share this page, it truly helps. Even if you know of any resources, grants, or programs that assist with medical costs for disabled individuals, please feel free to reach out. Any help: financial or informational is deeply appreciated.

Any raised funds will be going directly towards my Care Credit bill (medical credit card), towards hospital bills, doctors fees, or any extra wheelchair necessities.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read, share, and support my journey.

I'll keep fighting in the meantime!
