I have always been a loving wife, mother, stepmother, grandmother, sister, aunt and good friend. I was also very involved in my church ministry and always there for others.
Unfortunately, due to my declining health, I had to stop working four years ago and am no longer able to do so much of what I was always able to do. After receiving a kidney transplant I look forward to spending quality time with friends, family and becoming a more active member of the community again. After many years of trying to help others, now I need your help.
A transplant is life-saving and also very expensive. Even with insurance there are many expenses that must be paid out of pocket. Some of these expenses are co-pays, deductibles, lab fees and a life-time of anti-rejection medications. This is where I need your support. My goal is $5,000 to begin my journey. Any and all donations to help me reach that goal will be greatly appreciated.
A fundraising campaign in honor of myself, Steavella Tippens-Gaddis, has been established with Help Hope Live a trusted nonprofit organization that has been providing community-based fundraising guidance to patients and their families for more than 30 years.
All donations are tax deductible, are held by Help Hope Live South-Central Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. Please consider a contribution.
Thank you for your support!
June 17th God blessed me to get my new liver. I am so thankful to Dr. Alan Hawxby and the entire transplant team to do such a wonderful job. Now I just need to get my strength back.
Must start my campaign over. So many people that I thought would donate has made me weary. I will make another appeal to my FRIENDS & FAMILY because they may have forgotten about me at all. I am still positive about this transplant and know it will take place with God's will. Need another picture also.
Call today from transplant center, I am officially on the kidney waiting list. Network Organ Sharing. Waiting for both kidney and liver now.
Starting to feel a little disappointed not to many donations. Prayers are up and needed . I'm on the list, but don't know when time will come, so I'm getting ready for the phone call. I'll only have 1 hour to get there to have the surgery. Please continue to pray fro me.
Friday March 11, I did my last test. his is the last and my doctor's appointments will start to be a few. Just waiting, praying and patience until my miracle day comes. Now I have to come up with some type of fundraiser that will get me close to my goal or even over. It's a little slow coming in from donations, but I will be patient in that area also.
Had 4 vaccines Tues., down to 2 more and will be finished with them.
February 26, I am scheduled for one more test on March 10, and vaccines needed before transplant, then I must wait. I'm trusting in God that the funds will come in without a hitch. Trying not to worry.
I have no tumor cells in the bladder/kidney area and Dr. said it looks good for kidney transplant
started my pre-examinations needed for transplant.
