Supporting Kelli Rix Medical Treatment Expenses
Donation protected
My beautiful friend and former colleague Kelli Rix has gone undiagnosed since March 2023 with symptoms which have caused her health and body to significant deteriorate over the last 10 months. Caught in a dysfunctional medical system unable to respond quickly and proactively to get her in with the specialists needed to give her the diagnosis, care and treatment she needs, Kelli has had no choice but to seek alternative treatment not covered by insurance while she waits.
This fundraiser is to support the cost of these treatments which has been recommended by Kelli’s doctor. These treatments (IV therapy) cost $250 a pop, are not covered by insurance, and need to be administered 2-3 times per week. They are providing her body with basic nutrients her body and organs need to function.
Kelli is a wife, a mom, a friend, and a colleague and she deserves all the help we can offer her. For those who know her, Kelli is a bright light who pours her energy into taking care of others and is the last person to ask for help for her herself. While she's been waiting for a series of specialist appointments, it's been 10 months so far with no diagnosis or care plan in place and so it's our turn to support and take care of her so she has one less thing to worry about.
