I'm Colton's mother, and I'm doing this to alleviate the financial stress that comes with having a chronic illness. Colton was diagnosed as being in renal failure in August 2024. He is employed with Alliance Coal but hasn't been able to work since October 2025. In October, he had to get a chest catheter inserted for his dialysis after his PD port was no longer adequately cleaning his blood. He was in what the doctor said was 'a life or death situation.' His chest catheter is high risk for infection, so his nephrologist won't release him until after his transplant, which we are hoping he's healthy enough to undergo in March 2026. Colton recently was diagnosed with PRES (posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome) and was in ICU for over a week after being found unresponsive due to high blood pressure, which led to seizures and swelling of his brain while he was home alone at his house. He has great insurance; however, it only covers 80% of his treatments, which is very costly per month, and now he's no longer able to work. Medical bills are piling up, and being a single 24-year-old with his own home and everyday bills has been very stressful during this time. I'm raising money to help with his everyday bills along with medical bills. Anything you can contribute will be so appreciated!
