Urgently need financial assistance.
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Ryan Yost and I was diagnosed in March of 2020 with End stage liver disease and renal failure. My nephrologist in Wichita, Dr. Moussa, was amazed to see my renal failure go from stage 4 to stage 3 and ultimately I am no longer in renal failure and haven't been for a couple of years. My cirrhosis advanced rather quickly and is now Decompensated End Stage Liver Disease due to complications such as portal hypertension, esoohegeal varices, hepatic encephalopathy and bleeding and bruising. I am still on life sustaining meds until a transplant which KUMC goes off of the MELD score (Model for End Stage Liver Disease), not the complications. That makes it extremely difficult for my family to keep afloat. I am pleased to say I finally have my hearing with SSA tomorrow at 915am and the attorneys are extremely confident In will finally be granted Disability. (After 3 years of fighting). That being said, I still choose to continue to work, unfortunately, it's only part-time. And this day in age, $800.00 dollars a month doesn't go far with 2 teenage boys and playing mom and dad. With help at times from family and friend, I still continue to doggie paddle in this huge ocean, struggling to keep my head above water. With donations, I am so desperately needing, maybe i can start swimming to shore. If I am granted disability, I will still be waiting at least 4 to 5 months. Please, even if it's just $5.00 from each person , that will help me so much. If you can't donate, please share my story. Thank you in advance. XO
