My name is Mackenzie Riley, and im 23 years old.
For the past 5 years and still currently today i have been dealing with a large non healing open(surgical) wound on my back and severe chronic pain .In 2010 i had my second back surgery since the first one failed for my boldging discs and bone spurs, it was this "botched" surgery that has caused me to have 26 neck and back surgerys to date. My parents and I have gone from doctor to doctor and have had test after test seeking for help and answeres as to why my back will not heal and where the source of these infections are coming from. I have been in and out of the hospital for the past 5 years to the present day. I have had to have multiple blood transfusions, i've had superbugs ( Deadly Infections that respond to a few antibiotics)ive been septic and have gone into septic shock to many times to count,and i have osteomyelitis in my cpine and spine. i have stayed multiple times in LTAC hospitals for months receiving strong multitudes of IV antibiotics with no improvement, I have almost died from this 5 times.The doctors here have given up on me. they have just been treating the symptoms and have never gotten to the route cause of what is causing me not to heal and causing me to stay so ill, instead they say there is nothing more they can offer or do. this is where i am asking for everyone and anyones help. The doctors in Missouri are willing to take on my case! they have doctors set up and have promised they will do everything that they can to try and figure out what is causing all of thatthis and figure out the right treatments for me ! Just when i thought it was all over, God came through and blessed me with these doctors! They want me back in Kansas City ASAP. The only thing holding me back is the finances to getting me home and supporting me as I go through treatment while I am unable to work . So Friends and family i am asking if your could please find it in your heart to help donate to my funds to get me home to "Kansas City" where i can get the treatment i need to get well and back to being a young adult finishing school, living life, and putting this awful chapter behind me! Anything helps !!!!. Thankyou all so so much for your support and prayers.
