Belizean Activist Michael Reid Seeks Public Support

Known for his deep commitment to his community and his work with “Reid Between the Lines,” Michael Reid is now in urgent need of surgery to remove damaged prosthetics from both of his legs and undergo a hip replacement procedure.

Having already experienced multiple joint replacements, Reid’s situation has become more pressing. The prosthetics in his legs are severely damaged, and if not removed soon, they pose a serious risk of puncturing vital organs. Reid says that the left one has grown completely out of the socket and causes him a lot of pain and discomfort. The right side prosthesis is also in need of surgery, but the priority is the left one.

While the prosthetic removal can be done in Belize, Reid will need to travel abroad to Mexico for the hip replacement surgery. He is scheduled to leave next week to consult with doctors and determine if the surgery can move forward.

To cover the costs of these necessary procedures, Reid is reaching out to the public for support. Anyone who would like to contribute can donate to his Atlantic Bank account 211-553-371, under the name Michael Reid, or to his GoFundMe page.

He can also be reached directly at 615-6436 for more information.
