HorrorcowKristina Paige Klein / Krissy Klein / Klein Journey of Hope - Fundie Christian mom, turns her daughters into frankendolls with repeated brain surgeries, either MbP or worst case of taking dr's advice ever
The names are truly exceptional. I don't know how you're supposed to pronounce Aveneah or whatever — and even worse, a photo in this thread showed that kid's middle name is Aurorah. Can't even spell that correctly.
Why aren't names like, I dunno, John and Sally not good enough for white people anymore?
I hate when people plaster their children all over social media in general but it's especially disgusting to post them crying in pain and with open wounds in their head. Social media hasn't been around long enough to properly know the effects that shit like that has on young adults. At best it would just serve as a record of just how fucked your childhood was (assuming your mother hasn't made sure you're brain dead).
So there's definitely something sketchy regarding these friends. This'll take a minute, but follow me here.
I stumbled upon a recently-made charity page on Facebook called Be Your Blessing (Archive), that seemed to be taking donations to help the Klein's move to GA.
The first post from the page was on December 17, 2018 and simply said:
We are awaiting our paperwork for our 501(c)3 status. Stay tuned for updates on that process and our first family we will be blessing.
The timing of this first post is curious, because it was exactly one day before Krissy posted on her Facebook about how her kids were "falling through the gaps" and that they'd need $8000 for genetic testing.
Their next post didn't go up until January 10, introducing the Klein family and linking to their Facebook group.
That same day the charity posted their mission, saying they are still pending 501c3 status but that they had "donors who have already stepped up to help out our first family." They had donors less than 30 days after starting their charity page and before even announcing who they were helping?
So the thing about Be Your Blessing awaiting their 501c3 status is that yes, people can donate while they wait. And yes, as long as a charity's 501c3 status is approved those donations will be tax deductible. However, if the status is rejected, those donations do not qualify for a tax deduction. So if that deduction is important to someone when donating (which it oftentimes is, especially for larger amounts), they might be hesitant to donate to a charity who does not currently hold that precious 501c3 status.
Source: IRS website but I also worked for a 501c3 status non-profit dealing with donations for nearly a decade.
Then on February 22, Be Your Blessing posted about needing to raise $3000 to officially help move the Klein's to Georgia.
After that post, there wasn't another update on the Klein's (or really on the charity's page at all) until April 6. This claims the Klein's dealt with both avalanches and a tornado on the way from CO to GA.
Then, finally on April 19 BYB had its coveted 501c3 status. This is the very last update for the page. Seems strange that a charity would just suddenly quit posting after helping only 1 family, but especially strange that they stopped as soon as they reached that tax deductible stage.
So I did a bit of digging on this charity, and this is where the friends come in. It's registered to one John D. Robinett of Locust Grove, GA. A quick google search brings up that this guy owns Robinett Consulting, Inc. The address the charity is registered to is seemingly John and his wife Sara's home address.
As you'll see from this post of Krissy's from January, she tagged BYB, letting her followers know that if they wanted to make a tax deductible donation they could do so through them (which was a half-truth). She also tagged Sara Robinett in the same post. Clicking on her profile, and who do I see in the picture with Sara? Our girl Krissy.
I'm still not 100% on what this all means, but I can at least state a few facts:
1.) Krissy's friends started a charity page on Facebook exactly one day before she ranted about needing $8000 for genetic testing
2.) This charity already had multiple donors before announcing what their mission was, before achieving 501c3 status, and before announcing who they were helping.
3.) As soon as the charity received its 501c3 status, they quit posting on their Facebook page entirely. Their website, which is linked on the Facebook page, does not work.
Just my two cents: Krissy knows how to pull all the heartstrings of people, with her jesus stuff. So a lot of people feel compelled to help because the Kleins are such a beautiful poor family, they just HAD to do something. I bet Krissy also guilty-trips them all the time with her ''oh we are SO in need of money! we don't know what to do or how you guys can help, but we need money! you can pray, but MONEY'' attitude. Also seems like her social circle is filled with good samaritans who would pull their pants down and bend over backwards to help a good christian family with ''ill children''.
What happened with this charity thing is that her friends heard from her about the costly ''genetic testing'' Haleigh needed and decided to ''open'' a charity to help her. But the question is, is the Robinett family as shady and scam-happy as the Kleins? Because they lied through their teeth with this charity bullshit, since the whole thing was set up to help just ONE family, not families. Maybe the Kleins aren't the only ones who like to scam people in the good samaritan community? Do the Robinetts believe the munchie story? Or they know Krissy is using the money for other things other than her children? If they know Krissy is scamming people, why they're helping her? Do they get a part of the donated money too?
This brings more questions than answers.

This thread is hard to read cuz kids. The saving grace is that Kristina is SUCH an egregious grifter it helps distract from thinking about what the kids are going thru.
There's an interesting coincidence ...
The Kleins had a bit in common with another family in Colorado, one that met a tragic fate in Aug 2018.
(if you are interested, here's true crime blog about the watts I was skimming - https://truecrimecaseanalysis.home.blog/ )
*note these are just surface similarities, the two families had no connection)
The Watts family was murdered in Aug 2018, and the dad, Chris Watts pled guilty Nov 6.
November was when the Kleins got a lot of negative comments in their group.
Looking through information (reading the blog linked above) about the Watts family it appears that Shan'ann was a bit of a hypochondriac and there's speculation she was doctor shopping and possibly making the girls sick. The family was DEEP in debt. There had been fundraisers.
Both families had:
sick mom
2 sick girls
crippling debt
lived in Colorado
check out the photos below - they even look a lot alike
Word through the grapevine is these comparisons were being made in the community and the Kleins may have been getting the side eye because of people being subconciously affected by the extremely tragic nature of the Watts murders.
These people really do look very similar, other than Krissy being a big gorl.

Shannan was nose-deep in MLM and debt. She sold Thrive, claiming that their shakes and caffeine patches cured her of ALL TIREDNESS AND PAIN, FOREVER. She supposedly had lupus, which is questionable. Google "Shannan Watts lupus," and all that comes up is conjecture. One thing's for sure, though - lupus is a scary fucking disease. Its symptoms include hideous rashes and literal psychosis, not... whatever it is Shannan describes here.
Shannan also had a neck surgery of dubious necessity. Note how she flaunts the medical merch.
Her daughters were constantly sick, and Shannan claimed they were allergic to pretty much everything. Shannan was obsessed with naps, and put the girls to bed extremely early... which, surprise surprise, caused them to be hyper at 3AM. The girls' hair looked rather brittle, too.
tl;dr Shannan had not-so subtle signs of being a Munch. Is Krissy also involved in MLM? If she was even marginally in touch with Shannan, I'll shit a brick.
WOW. That’s... wow. They do look shocking similar. Not sure what the hell to make of THAT. If the move from CO to GA was anywhere near the time of the Watts murders, EXTRA WOW.
@large_farva Not to get too off topic but careful not to piss off the Shiners. They are savage in defending perfect Shan'ann (whose family calls her Shanon).
The Shiners are lolcows too but saccharinely boring, delusional and repetitive.
They're a clusterfuck of bored and for some reason mostly religious housewives who whiteknight the late Mrs. Watts high and low across the internet. They disrupt any discussion they find that implies she may not have been the most saintly and tragic of victims with excessive "don't speak ill of the dead" branded moralfagging and a resounding battle cry to #shinelikeshanann.
I'd feel bad if the actual Shriners got grifted by these types, though. They've got that money-making circus to help sick kids, we've just got a circus around making kids sick for money.
well, first thing i wanna say that she seems to reference to a neurologist of being a bad doctor cuz of not wanting to do surgery which totally means the hospitals have caught on and why shes hospital hopping like CRAZY. so far its been CO, ny, PA oregon??? ugh.
There is so much wrong here, and this woman is very, very sick (in the head). I don't know how she managed to get doctors to buy into her claims of her kids' illnesses, I'm just... sickened.
EDS seems to be the munchie/spoonie disease of choice these days. It seems like it comes up every time I hear of a new nutjob. I find it interesting that she constantly refers to the generic "connective tissue disease" instead of the actual diseases. I actually had to look up "connective tissue disease" and it seems like all of them could be a hassle, but treatable/manageable hassles. Not like she makes it out to be.
The more I think of what she's done to her kids, the angrier I get. Why is the husband going along with this? Is doc shopping in multiple states the reason she's getting some doctors to go along with this lunacy?
EDS is becoming a popular munchie dox because of the fact it has "chronic pain" in the list of the symptoms but it is much more then so. there are 13 subtypes w/ EDS but the most common is hypermobile or type 3. what she is referring to is classical EDS but at the same time some contextual things to hEDS which is a common munchie claim. despite its other defining features. the fact the doctors did not do any testing is odd but heres the thing. this woman will put her children thru SO MUCH PAIN thru brain surgery and NG tubes but not A BIOPSY of their tissues. so there's
powerlevel i have hEDS and had the biopsy done to make sure EDS was even on the table when i was these kids age. it was scary but i cant amount it to fucking NG TUBES AND BRAIN SURGERY??
classical EDS has some similar testing for it and genetic testing,
either way this woman is talking about a disorder that is known to have different subtypes but not saying a subtype which is odd, some of which are very severe and kill people. unless she figures that out and goes from brain surgeries to heart :/
Too many "I"'s in her FB posts. Mommy wants all the attention on her. She's the perfect Mom.
And she wants money too.
It's very suspicious that she's never wishing her kids to be healthy, or thanking God for that.

Despite Krissy saying this was EDS/Connective Tissue Disorder, Avee's first genetic testing did not test for EDS.
The second round of genetic testing- the one the Robinett's paid for - proved they did NOT have EDS.
Dreaded news that your kids do not have a disease? Munchie red flag. I guess she's mad because that kind of ruins her EDS awareness video she made the girls do. She quickly comes up with another diagnosis to chase.
Google image search "Loey-Dietz" shows a lot of facial deformities, I don't think that's what they have.
Interesting more that she suddenly fell ill with Breast Cancer not long after this 'dreaded news'
Krissy won't just say "We don't have EDS" she dances around it and avoids saying it at all cost and keeps saying "connective tissue disorder" .

The Watts case is a great example of "Everyone sucks." Daddy sucks for cheating and killing his little girls. Mommy sucks for being an MLM harpy desperate for attention. One thing tat stuck out to me with that case is that she only ever had a handful of views on her videos, but thought she was some MLM star. Very obvious she was keeping her kids looking sickly. She kept her kids' hair super short on purpose and made them look like ugly cancer patients.
I don't care about saying mean things about dead people. The older daughter was a very, very weird looking little girl.

The second round of genetic testing- the one the Robinett's paid for - proved they did NOT have EDS. Krissy says this was "dreaded news" - almost implying that it was true, but then in the comments reveals they don't have EDS, the geneticist says the munchie call out "your kids are just too complex for us to treat" and Krissy starts with the narrative that they *might* have Loey-Deitz. Google image searches show a lot of facial deformities so I highly doubt that's what it is. View attachment 989271

She kept up the narrative that they have connective tissue disorder but stopped calling it EDS, except she won't just say "We don't have EDS" she dances around it and avoids saying it at all cost.
Why are they even being tested for things that they obviously don't have? Fragile X and osteogenesis imperfecta are not something that would go unnoticed for 10 years, things that cause facial deformities even less so.
