Help our son Robbie

Donation protected

We are the Barrett family we have three children one of which who is Robbie who just turned 14 suffers from Kidney and Bladder disease along with other serious health issues. He was born with a condition called hydronephrosis, which is where his ureters were not formed correctly and caused severe damage to his kidneys and destroyed his bladder. As a result Robbie gets serious infections and extremely high temps usually over 104 at times regularly, which have been life threatening and he has to stay in the hospital on occasion. With his infections he has to take antibiotics as a result he has started to become resistant to a majority of them and he has a hard time fighting off the infections. The doctors have been extraordinary up here but due to the complexity of his case they don’t know what else they can do for him. If we do nothing for him he wont be able to fight off these infections for long. We found a doctor out of state that is willing to take on his case but our insurance will not cover it because its out of our network. We filed appeals but were denied on all of them, surprise right! We constantly are fighting with them to cover his medical supplies such as his over night catheter’s that he has to use every night but they only want to cover 4 for a month, crazy math doesn’t add up right. So all were looking for is help with hotel, gas and food expenses. We will figure out the rest, so if there was any way you can help or pass this on we would be very grateful. As a family we run our local food pantry to help out as many families as we possibly can. And Robbie has been trying to start his Non For Profit called Bugamans Dream so he can help other families like ours who have a hard time getting medical supplies or help find what ever they need for there child who needs help.

Thanks for taking time reading this and please pass it on.
