Fund for Abby

 When Abby was 9 years old she began having severe abdominal pain. Over the years the cause has remained a mystery. Seeking relief and trying to manage the pain. She tried many drugs among which were Hydro-morphine and medical marjuana all of which provided no  pain relief. Doctors have done numerous CAT scans, MRIs,  scopes, and turned to psychiatric drugs to help manage pain all without answers.  The last two years she's been on over 30 different kinds of meds without relief, to which Abby got allergic reactions like rash, nausea, vomiting, siezures, and more pain to most of the drugs.
 Today Abby is 15 years old and still working at a grade 7 level unable to attend school for months at a time due to the level of pain she constantly experiences. Debilatating pain without a cause affecting her everyday life missing out on daily activites and the excitement of a teenager hanging out with friends enjoying herself.
 And this year in January the doctors had a diagnosis; Adenomyosis. Adenomyosis is a fybriod (non cancerous tumor) growing into the uterine walls. 
 Researching and reading the testimonies of hundreds of women sounded so much like Abby's. We have found a doctor in New York who specializes in surgery minimally invasive for her condition . The cost is approximately $25,000 to $35,000 plus $200 for every specimen they remove from the uterus plus additional expenses for travel. 
 We have called the hospital where the surgery is to take place and the waiting list is not long. We are hoping to go in the next month or two.  Our hearts break for her that she has had to suffer for so long. She tries so hard to be happy but with the intense pain she suffers depression which makes her want to give up.
 Our family has decided to move forward trusting that people will hear our story and give as they are able. 
 We thank those who give for their donations of love.
