Colton Haynes took to Instagram this week and revealed that his mom, Dana, has been repeatedly hospitalized since January and that she needs a new liver to survive.
“My mom, Dana, always loves to laugh. Even when her liver & kidney doctors gave us the worst news you could get, my mom looked at us and said, ‘The best thing to do in these situations is to laugh,’” he wrote. “She then chuckled so loud you could hear it to the other end of the hospital. That’s my mom. [She’s funny, bull headed, & strong.”
“However … that bad news I mentioned before was that she doesn’t have much time to wait for a new liver,” he continued. “The doctors suggested that we now focus on my mother’s quality of life rather than quantity of life. It’s heartbreaking.”
Colton and his family set up a GoFundMe page to assist in the payment of hospice care.
“Now that the goal has been reached … every single penny we raise over the goal from today on will be donated to the American Liver Foundation to help others who are going through this horrible disease,” he stated. “It would mean the world to my family & I if we could make a massive donation to this incredible organization. Thank y’all for listening & sending all the love to my beautiful momma.”
