Liver Transplant for DJ
Donation protected
Hello all,
My niece Dijonay's has been diagnosed with an Auto Immune Disease - Cirrhosis of the Liver in September 2020 at the age of 16, since then our family has been completely fraught with a difficult journey. We have been absolutely distraught and overwhelmed since her doctor's diagnosis, we are trying everything humanly possible to get her the best of care and assistance. At her tender age of 18 years old, the best chapters of her life has been completely stripped away and replaced with pain and anguish.
Since September her Cirrhosis has unfortunately increased rapidly and has now started too slowly deteriorate her body, it is heart breaking to say that it has progressed to its last stages and is impossible for her to recover without a liver transplant. As a family, we are trying to do everything in our powers to keep her alive and to gather as many funds, information and resources as quickly as possible to shed hope and positivity on our situation.
We are in the mist of getting DJ an emergency international medical transfer to the United States from Kingston Jamaica in which she resides. As they do not have the proper resources to treat her condition, especially at the rapid rate it is progressing.
We have been told by her doctors that the only hope for survival is a liver transplant. We have never wanted to ask for financial help, but we now find ourselves with no other option. This GoFundMe campaign has been set up to help support our beloved DJ's transportation, medical and personal care needs, as she continues her fight, to beat this life-threatening disease, and receive a liver transplant.
We would like to thank all of you, who have been following DJ's story thus far. She has been greatly touched by your thoughts and prayers. The outpouring of love; on social media, text, and phone calls, has brought us all together, during these challenging times.
We appreciate all the donation, thoughts, prayers, and information you all have blessed us with, it means a lot to our family in such a hard time!
