<div>Hi I’m Kiya! On August 6th 2023 I became chronically ill. I have since been diagnosed with severe Gastroparesis, Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome, Crohns, and many other conditions, as well as having three of my organs having serious problems and no longer working properly. Those led to becoming severely malnourished and losing my ability to eat. I have a long journey ahead of me. December 2nd, 2025 I had feeding tubes placed in my stomach to be able to hopefully have proper nutrition again. These surgeries I have to have twice a year for my stomach alone will cost me more than I make in an entire year between surgery costs, medical supplies, feeding tube formula, and at home health care. Because of the surgeries, recovery, and all the appointments that will be following this, I will not be able to work as much as before while I navigate this journey. I currently work full time and live on my own, and this is going to have a massive impact on me financially. I don’t know what the future looks like, but I’m trying to fight to be as healthy as possible again and that’s going to take a lot of medical intervention to keep me going. The less I have to work the more I can focus on my health. My job is really physically demanding and hard on my body. I'm supposed to be on life support 20 hours a day, but due to financial reasons I have not been able to. At work I am unable to use my feeding tubes to get my nutrition which also affects my wellbeing significantly.  I’m going to keep on fighting and to “live for the hope of it all” as Taylor Swift says. I’d be endlessly grateful for any help.
