Raise funds for Genie's Operation ($250,000)

Hello everyone my name is Renox Rochester aka Knox, nox, Skipp or Skippy.
I am in dire need of assistance from the public for my dear sweetheart baby and wife Suzette Rochester aka Genie or Genie in a bottle.
She is suffering beyond what we can comprehend and any help from the public would be greatly appreciated.
My wife was diagnosed with cancer in 1999 and she did radiotherapy in a facility that overdosed her causing a fistula to break out between her vaginal cavity and her colon. Because of this, feces started coming through her vagina one morning we woke up. That was one of the worst experiences we as a couple has ever experienced, she sat on the toilet and there it was, coming through what should have been going through the back, was coming through the front, I don't think anyone in there right senses would ever want to experience that trauma. She tried to keep back the tears but to no avail, I had to console her and even though I was lost for words, reassured her everything would be alright.
We went to the hospital in Mandeville while there I had to change her three times because stools just came rushing out into the pampers she had to ware, we waited for almost the entire day from around seven am till after four pm that day only to hear that it was not considered an emergency, the doctor told us to join the clinic and wait on a very long list before she could be assisted, now HOW COULD A PERSON BARE THIS KIND OF DILEMMA FOR ANY period they told us that only gunshot, appendix, heart attack or stroke was considered an emergency. Then I heard of another hospital where they could do something for her, I got there at four am the very next morning and during the night leading up to that I had to change her multiple times I can't even recount the amount of times because I had to change her diet and went strait blended meals for the fistula not to break out any bigger, this I wouldn't wish on my worse enemy if I had any, with lack of sleep and with red eyes from not just sleep deprivation but crying also for help from anywhere, anybody that had a listening ear, we proceeded to the facility and only to hear that the clinic for that sort of thing would not be until the next day we had to make our way back home and wait out the night again changing pampers every tick the clock ticked.
We finally got to see the doctor that day only to hear the only appointment they had available was one month away.

None of us was nowhere ready for what transpired during that month sleep was not a part of our vocabulary whether night or day and I had to clean stools twenty-four seven with little or no monetary or bodily assistance but thank God we made it through the month.
She did the first surgery and came out three days later to bypass the latter part of the colon to see if the fistula would heal on its own the doctor told us it usually heals within six months. Fast forward six months they gave her the wrong examination to do from a (half-sleeping trainee doctor)
So we went to the facility and when I saw what they were about to do I told the doctor that she cannot do that test because I never knew until then what the test entailed, I stood and argued with her for over two hours back and forth till I left and went for one of our doctors to come and explain why she could not do that type of test, after going through all of the doctor's multiple warnings she still went ahead and did the test.
She made a trainee pump my dear wife's colon so full of air that it busted out the fistula AGAIN after telling me she had over fifteen years of experience in doing those things and assuring us that it will be ok, my wife passed out on the table in pain!! And we were right back where we started with a big hole which measured roughly an inch in diameter between the two again.
Now what was supposed to be six months turned into one year. After the other six months had passed the doctor examined her again only to tell us that it would no longer heal on its own another surgery would be needed to fix the problem.

We geared up and went in and this time they cut a hole in the vulva of her vagina which is the right wall of her vagina, took out the fat from that area and placed it between the vagina and her colon after separating it to allow it to heal in place, that surgery was successful and after that they did another examination only to find out that not only did the radiation make a fistula but it also damaged the nerve that controlled her anal muscles, so only now we are just finding out that these doctors say they cannot do anything about that part and she will have to deal with waring a bag on her side for the rest of her life, what was supposed to be six months turned into one year, turned again into a lifetime!! ‍♂‍♂ she has been wearing this bag for six full years now and believe me whatever savings we have acquired over the years would evaporate into buying supplies for this venture. She tried many types of bags and some of them, most of them she is allergic to and the only one that works costs around $20,000 jmd for ten, sometimes she has to change this bag up to three times a week, you can do the math,
No words are there to express how much I love my wife and to see her in this condition is heart-rending overwhelming and just breaks my heart every time I change this bag or wipe stools from her belly.
Just six weeks ago her belly broke out in allergies because of a skin barrier she got, we could not find the correct one and were forced to use another, only to see her belly breaking out into hives and itching and bleeding even if you touched it with tissue, I've cried a million tears I've broken down outside of her presents in agony of spirit I've gone through depression almost to the point of thinking this was my last breath coming out, Lord knows it hurts to see her in this condition.
Just not willing to give up until I have exhausted all options, I contacted a doctor overseas and he told me there was HOPE!! he told me that they could help by putting a mechanism in place to help to control her stools but the cost would be way out of our reach due to what had transpired over the six years she has had this problem, and that is why I am here on this medium asking for help from all persons with a heart that will understand and have compassion on a sick individual, the estimated cost is two hundred and fifty thousand USD to put in that mechanism and to reverse the colostomy. A mother of two, a grandmother of three and a wife who if it were possible and the solution was on the moon to fix her, her husband would try to get there for it, I love my baby beyond words and I would love to see her using the bathroom like a normal person again, to see the joy of even doing the simple day to day things without having to be bombarded with bags, tape, tissue, wipes, scissors, disinfectant, cotton, skin barrier cream and a whole host of other things that comes with the territory, there's no mile I wouldn't be willing to go just to see her smile genuine happiness again.
If it is genuine, kind-hearted, loving, considerate compassionate, and looking out for others more than herself that's the person you will be helping to make this world a better place.
Thank you and I hope this finds the right people that has a heart of gold.
