On December 28, just days after Christmas, our family endured a crisis that no family should ever have to endure. After a diagnosis of iron poisoning leading to multi organ failure, we were told that 14-year-old Kylee's only hope was a liver transplant, and even then there were no guarantees. Her condition was so severe that she was moved to the top of the transplant list. She has been in the PICU, fighting for her life since December 30. She recieved her new liver January 14 and is doing better, but is still nowhere near out of the woods. The doctors cannot give any sort of promises, because they say to thos date, nobody in history has ever survived iron poisoning to this extent. We are in uncharted waters now, doctors and nurses, doing theor best to keep her stable and get her better. We are still facing likely months and months of hospitalization, all kinds of therapies, possibly for years, and a lifetime of complication risks. The children's hospital she is in is almost 100 miles from our house. Her dad has been by her side and therefore is temporarily out of work. Medical bills are piling up, living expenses are accumulating, and the cost of gas and tolls is not decreasing.
