Now, Allison needs 24/7 care along with various therapies and medications. These expenses multiply quickly. Unfortunately, Allison’s limited insurance does not cover everything needed to maintain her health, quality of life or continue to fight further progression of the disease. Between medical deductibles, medications, caregivers and physician’s therapies, out of pocket costs are approximately $540 or more weekly. This is quite the financial burden to add to their daily expenses. Allison desperately needs your help!

Though this condition has taken a lot from Allison, it has never been able to steal her happiness or her love for life. Allison firmly believes as Poet Robert Louis Stevenson said, “Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but playing a poor hand well”. She spends much of her time encouraging and comforting individuals in the community with a bible message via the phone or letter writing. She always endeavors to live her life to the best of her ability with her loving husband of 13 years, Albert, as well as their caring family and friends.

To help offset such expenses, a fundraising campaign in Allison’s honor 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 to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the Northwest Catastrophic Illness Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only.
