Support Dex and Chris thru Recovery

Donación protegida

Background

Two years ago Dex was experiencing severe  pain in his stomach so Chris took him to the hospital.  While at the hospital the Doctors thought he was displaying symptoms of appendicitis and sent him home. Then 1 week later as he started feeling worse doctors thought it maybe a really bad flu and sent him home again.

While Dex was trying to use the washroom, he had a complete bowel prolapse, meaning they came completely out of his body, Chris was home thankfully and called the Ambulance immediately they rushed him to the hospital. Upon repairing what had occurred they did a scope but failed to do a complete, thorough analysis and did not see any further issues, again sent him home not knowing that he in fact had a perforation higher up than they looked. Leaving Dex to become septic, with toxins leaching into his body, within 24 hours he went into Cardiac arrest. Dex had to be resuscitated 3 times and rushed back to the emergency room of the Naniamo Regional General Hospital where they tried to operate with an incision from his hips to his chest, and found it was too complicated so they sealed off the perforation, induced a coma and had him air lifted to Vancouver Childrens Hospital fearing the severity of his condition.  The Doctors have no explanation as to why this medical mystery has occurred.

Currently

A week ago Dex started having flu like symptoms, after the second day, Dex's  dad Christopher, called 911 to have him taken by ambulance to Emergency. It was evident Dex needed to be air lifted to the Children's Hospital in Vancouver.  Within hours, Dex was admitted into life saving emergency surgery again.

2 years ago Dex and his dad, Christopher, spent 6 months in the Children's Hospital for similar issues that Dex is again struggling with now.
Dex has not only a perforated bowel again, but also his lower intestine is twisted with blockage from multiple previous surgeries.  Picture a kinked and twisted garden hose.

 This last year Dex had been back to living as a normal teenager, back to dirt jumping on his bike , hanging with friends ,etc. Dex had just started his job at DQ again as well. Dex is such a hard worker and excellent student, but of course this has to end until healed and properly functioning again as a typical 16 year old should be .

Just as Dex and Christopher were settling into a normal living situation again as a father son should be able to, this shocking life threatening occurrence has happened once again!!!

Its just the two of them struggling for survival with so many unknowns of how and when this will be back to normal.
We kindly and humbly ask for any donation as Christopher will not be able to work again for the foreseeable future being Dexs' only living parent, care giver and provider.
