The Missouri teenager who hit her head on the ground during a fight suffered severe brain damage — and now her family is asking for help.
The 15-year-old’s loved ones started a GoFundMe to her, and they revealed her name as Kaylee … with them noting that she is fighting for her life as she remains hospitalized in critical condition following last week’s incident.

According to GFM – which aims to raise $100,000 to help cover her mounting medical costs – the fight left Kaylee with massive bleeding and brain swelling.
They also say she suffered a fractured skull and damage to her frontal lobe — noting that she is just at the beginning of what they consider to be a difficult recovery battle.
Her family doesn’t say this explicitly… but it seems like she may not be aware.
Remember, Kaylee was seen alone and convulsing on the floor as the fight continued around her – which included several other teens throwing punches at each other. According to her family… Paramedics finally arrived on the scene and rushed Kaylee to a local hospital in St. Louis, but it appears the damage may have already been done by then.
As we reported… the teenager who attacked Kaylee was arrested on a first-degree felony charge – but the case is currently being handled by the juvenile court system due to the age of the perpetrator.
However, we learned that she could be tried as an adult… depending on how the hearing plays out in a few weeks. If Kaylee’s condition worsens, it could also spell bad news for the culprit in question.
Stay tuned …
