She is Desiree and this is her story: In May 2018 Desiree underwent surgery for appendicitis due to peritonitis, they had to do two surgeries and left her abdomen open, during the first surgery she suffered two cardiorespiratory spasms which caused her to be in a coma for 8 days . Due to the first Surgery, two abdominal hernias emerged which were so large that it seemed that she was pregnant. In 2021, she was admitted to the emergency hospital because one of the hernias was causing serious problems since she was strangled. At that time, they did not put her in the operating room due to suspicions of stomach or colon cancer. After several tests and a colonoscopy and endoscopy, it was confirmed that it was not cancer. She received 21 blood transfusions over the next two and a half months as she suffered from severe anemia and could not undergo surgery at the time. Until the anemia improved a bit, they operated on her the following week because she had been vomiting for a whole week and unable to keep anything down in her stomach. They admitted her to the hospital and she still had to wait 3 more days to be operated on, by then her abdomen was completely red, a sign that there was an infection. She goes into surgery on a Saturday and it goes well, after two days her skin begins to become necrotic and they decide to re-operate, they had to cut necrotized skin and during this process the surgeons are unable to close her abdomen, they put her in the operating room every two days to gradually close the abdomen, in the second intervention they discovered a microperforation of the ileum and she left the operating room with an ileostomy on the right side of her abdomen, two days after that intervention she was surgically intervened again for the third time and when Her blood pressure is very low and her heartbeat is equally low and they decide to admit her to intensive care for the second time. Then the hospital in question makes the decision to send her to another hospital because they did not believe they were capable of treating her and send her to more qualified specialists. At this time the worst was feared.

Desiree was admitted to the new hospital at night after the third intervention directly into intensive care and was there until completing two more surgeries until she was able to completely close her abdomen. I spend 14 days with my abdomen open and fully awake. At that time, she did not think that the bag that was attached to her abdomen would remain with her for 8 months. It was a very hard blow, but God gave her the strength to continue her life normally. The day arrives to remove the ileostomy, he enters the hospital and everything goes well. Desiree returned home after a week of being hospitalized and the next day several stitches opened and a lot of blood came out. She went every day to be treated and fluid was removed from the wound because they did not put a drain at any time or before or after surgery. One day when he arrives for a check-up, they do an ultrasound and she has abdominal fluid, more than 500 cc in multiple areas of the abdomen and they decide to re-operate again, he leaves the operating room well, thanks again to our savior. I've been doing well for a few months. Some time later, balls began to sprout on the skin of the abdomen area and every time one exploded, putrefied material came out. She went to the hospital many times and they only told her that it was normal, because she had had so many surgeries that the skin on her abdomen was loose and very thin. A few weeks later, he began to urinate the same material that came out of his wounds, and he was diagnosed with a urinary infection. He decided to go to a private doctor who was able to find what he really had after many studies, exams and evaluations and decided to undergo surgery on January 10, 2023. The doctor sent by God against all bad prognosis that he had for his life does his homework perfectly and discovers that: She had multiple fistulas that connected to the bladder and the anus. In addition, he discovers and removes the appendix, which they had supposedly removed in 2018 and also finds her intestines wrapped in surgical material that he was able to untangle and managed to remove half of the intestine that was not functional and also removes other organs such as the womb and ovaries, corrects her fistulas, it removes the Bacteria that was hurting him and did not let him be well. For all that work he did with the bladder fistulas and the other one in the back, he made the decision to have a colostomy to save his life since he did not want this to happen again. Now, after all this that she has experienced in these years, we come before our friends, family and all the people who are willing to help Desiree to be able to collect money so that they can close her colostomy this month, on March 30, 2023. Thank you and God bless you!

Ella es Desiree y esta es su historia: En Mayo 2018 Desiree es operada de apendicitis por una peritonitis le tienen que hacer dos cirugías y dejan su abdomen abierto, durante la primera cirugía sufrió dos espasmos cardiorrespiratorios lo cual causó que estuviera en coma durante 8 días. A causa de la primera cirugía le salen dos hernias abdominales las cuales eran tan grandes que parecía que estaba embarazada. En el año 2021 la internan en el hospital de emergencia porque una de las hernias estaba dando problemas graves ya que estaba estrangulada. En ese momento no la meten a quirófano por sospechas de cáncer de estómago o del Colon, luego de varios exámenes y una colonoscopia y endoscopia, se confirma que no es cáncer. Recibió 21 transfusiones de sangre durante los siguientes dos meses y medio ya que padecía de una anemia grave y no podía ser operada en el momento. Hasta que la anemia mejoró un poco, la operaron a la semana siguiente porque presentó vómitos toda una semana y sin poder retener nada en el estómago. La ingresan al hospital y aún tuvo que esperar 3 días más a ser operada, para este entonces su abdomen ya estaba totalmente rojo, signo que había una infección. Entra a cirugía un sábado y sale bien, a los dos días su piel se empieza a poner necrótica y deciden re intervenir quirúrgicamente, tuvieron que cortar piel necrosada y durante este proceso los cirujanos no logran cerrar su abdomen, la metieron a quirófano cada dos días para ir cerrando de a poco el abdomen, en la segunda intervención descubren una micro perforación del íleon y sale con una ileostomía del quirófano al lado derecho de su abdomen, a los dos días de esa intervención la vuelven a intervenir quirúrgicamente por tercera vez y cuando sale su presión está muy baja y los latidos del corazón igualmente bajos al igual y deciden por segunda vez ingresarla a cuidados intensivos. Después el hospital en cuestión toma la decisión de enviarla a otro hospital porque ellos no creían ser capaces de tratarla y la envían con especialistas más capacitados. En ese momento se temía lo peor.

Desiree ingresó al nuevo hospital por la noche después de la tercera intervención directamente cuidados intensivos y estuvo ahí hasta completar dos cirugías más hasta poder cerrar su abdomen completamente. Paso con el abdomen abierto 14 días y totalmente despierta. Ella en ese momento no pensó que esa bolsita que estaba adherida a su abdomen permanece con ella por 8 meses, fue un golpe muy duro pero Dios le dio fortaleza para seguir su vida normalmente. Llega el día de remover la ileostomía, ingresa al hospital y todo sale bien. Desiree regresó a su casa después de una semana de estar hospitalizada y al siguiente día se le abren varios puntos y le salía mucha sangre iba todos los días a que la curaran y le sacaran líquido de la herida porque no le pusieron dreno en ningún momento ni antes ni después de la cirugía. Un día que llega a revisión le hacen un ultrasonido y tenía líquido abdominal, más de 500 cc en múltiples áreas del abdomen y deciden intervenir nuevamente, sale del quirófano bien, gracias nuevamente a nuestro salvador. Pasó unos meses bien. Un tiempo después le empiezan a brotar pelotas en la piel del área del abdomen y cada vez que una explotaba le salía material putrefacto. Acudió muchas veces al hospital y solo le decían que era normal, pues había tenido tantas cirugías que la piel del abdomen la tenía como piel de cebolla. A las semanas empieza a orinar el mismo material que salía de sus heridas sacaban y le diagnosticaron infección urinaria. Decidió ir donde un médico privado que pudo dar con lo que tenía realmente después de muchos estudios, exámenes y evaluaciones y decidió intervenir quirúrgicamente el 10 de enero del 2023. El médico mandado por Dios contra todo mal pronóstico que tenía hacía su vida hace su tarea perfecta y descubre que: Tenía múltiples fístulas que conectaban con la vejiga y con el ano. Aparte descubre y remueve la apéndice, la cual supuestamente habían removido en el 2018 y también encuentra sus intestinos envueltos en material quirúrgico que él pudo desenredar y logró quitarle medio intestino que no estaba funcional y también le remueve otros órganos como matriz y ovarios, corrige sus fístulas, le remueve la Bacteria que le estaba haciendo daño y no le dejaba estar bien. Por todo ese trabajo que hizo con las fístulas de vejiga y la otra de atrás toma la decisión de hacerle una colostomía para salvarle la vida ya que él no deseaba que esto le volviera a pasar. Ahora después de todo esto que ha vivido en estos años venimos ante nuestros amigos, familiares y toda la gente que tenga la voluntad de ayudar a Desiree para poder recoger dinero para que le puedan cerrar la colostomía en este mes, el 30 de Marzo del 2023. Gracias y que Dios les bendiga!
