Makayla, a sweet and loving 20-year-old, has been battling scleroderma, myositis, and systemic sclerosis since she was 17. Despite the challenges, she remains kind-hearted and generous, always willing to help others. Recently, her condition worsened, leading to multiple hospitalizations and a move to the ICU, where she's now on a breathing machine.

As her mother, Bridget, I am facing financial difficulties due to the hospital being over an hour away and the need to be with Makayla. The costs of gas, food, and parking, along with maintaining household bills, have become overwhelming. I also have other children at home to care for. The hospital's care, while good, hasn't been as attentive as needed, making it hard to leave Makayla's side.

Funds raised will help cover essential expenses like gas, food, parking, and household bills, allowing me to focus on supporting Makayla during this critical time. Your support will make a significant difference in our lives, helping us navigate these challenging circumstances and ensuring Makayla receives the care she needs.
