Hi, I'm Kayleigh. For the past 20 years, I've battled severe back conditions—arthritis, scoliosis, spondylitis, degenerative disc disease, and dural ectasia. last April, I received heartbreaking news: the dural ectasia in my spine is eroding my bones. Once they erode completely, the fluid build-up will drown me almost instantly.

Initially, there was hope for a complex surgery, but tragically, it's never been successful. Now, my neurosurgeon has confirmed that pain management is my only option; I wouldn’t survive the operation they had planned.

I’ve started this GoFundMe campaign out of sheer necessity. My condition is poorly understood, and there’s no clear timeline for how long I have left. I’m desperately trying to arrange consultations abroad, where experts might offer possibilities beyond what’s available here. However, the costs for these consultations are overwhelming. If these surgeons cannot provide further treatment, my focus will shift to creating irreplaceable memories with my children and my partner during the time I have left. But the thought of not seeing my beautiful children grow up terrifies me.

If treatment becomes available overseas, I will update this page with details. At the moment, I’m researching options, but the financial burden is astronomical.

I'm writing this with tears streaming down my face. I don’t want to leave my children behind—they’re only 7 and 5 years old. Please, if you can, help support me in finding a way forward, whether that’s through life-saving treatment or giving me the gift of time to cherish unforgettable moments with my family.
