Kylee Tighe's medical issues

Donation protected
Hello all, as most of you know Kylee has been dealing with medical issues since she was eight years old. Recently, she has been experiencing a lot of pain in her abdomen. After multiple tests, they found out that her small intestine went behind and over her stomach causing a hernia. On November 1st, 2019 she had laparoscopic surgery to fix the situation. During her long recovery, she started to experience the pain again. After more testing, they found out that the same situation occured. On February 5th, 2020 her doctor then had to perform another surgery where he opened her completely up. A week and a half into her recovery, she began to feel the pain again. We talked to the on call doctor at Cleveland Clinic and he suggested that we take Kylee to Marion General Hospital to get evaluated. After her CT scan, the ER doctor told her that her small intestine is back behind her stomach. She got transported by an ambulance to the Cleveland Clinic that night. We met with her surgeon yesterday and he wants us to meet with another surgeon tomorrow morning. We understand that the goal amount for this gofundme page is high, but we can use all the help possible. Jerry ran out of paid time off at his work. Last pay, coworkers donated paid time off hours but he only recieved 65% of his gross pay. We would like to use this money towards hotels that are close to the clinic. As of right now, we are staying forty/fifty minutes away from the clinic. We would also use this money towards food, gas, parking, prescriptions, co-pays, etc. All the money that is leftover, we will be giving to Kylee. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time for Kylee and us.

Sincerely,

Jerry Tighe, Tracy Tighe, Kenzie Tighe, Mike Tighe, Chris Tighe, Kara Tighe, Seth Tighe, Ryan Evans, April Powell, John Powell, Kevin Evans
