Cystic Fibrosis requires extensive medications and treatments, doctor’s appointments, lab fees, specialized equipment, medical supplies and home health services. As Amber undergoes medical testing at St. Lukes Episcopal Hospital in Texas, her out-of-pocket transplant expenses are quickly adding up. Even with health insurance, Amber is facing large co-pays and deductibles, medical bills, rehabilitation costs, travel and lodging fees, temporary relocation expenses and possibly a full-time caregiver. Amber will also be required to take costly post-transplant medications to halt rejection that are needed for the rest of her life. More than ever, Amber needs your financial assistance and support!
To help with the financial burden of Amber’s uninsured expenses, a fundraising campaign in her 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 South-Central Lung Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. To make a donation to this fundraising campaign, please click on the yellow DONATE NOW button.
Amber is looking forward to living her life once again; going outdoors, walking her dog, shopping at the mall or even enjoying time at the zoo. She is excited about what her future holds for her and wants to thank you for your prayers, support and generosity. Please keep an eye on Amber’s campaign page for regular updates. Thank you ahead of time for your generous contribution.
With sincere gratitude,
Amber’s friends, family and Community

3 weeks today since we got the call saying we have a donor. Lots has happened, but we are on the road to recovery. Sounds like we will have 3 more weeks, but she will be moving out of ICU soon. Thanks to everyone for their support.
We are 12 days out and still taking things one day at a time. Still in ICU but lungs are still looking good, no rejection!!! Amber is still very week and having a hard time recovering, but pushes herself to do as much as possible during the day. We have had some set backs, but making progress. Amber is disappointed that things haven't gone as well as they were explained, but I know she will be feeling much better soon. Thanks to everyone for their love and support!
We got the call! Wednesday, August 17th about 5:30 pm the call from the transplant coordinator came that a possible donor was being evaluated and we should report to the hospital. After a long delay, she was finally wheeled off to the OR at 10am Thursday morning. As updates came to us, there were still no lungs...finally 1 pm the lungs were here and surgery was under way. Things went good, but after going to recovery there were some concerns and 12 hours later she was back in surgery! The doctors were able to correct the issue. She is now in recovery and doing good. It's a lot of hard work the next few days, but she is tolerating things very well so far. Thanks to everyone who has been there to support her and our family.
Amber's been listed 8 weeks now and has moved up 1 slot on the list. Thanks to everyone who has donated and for all the kind words and prayers. They are all appreciated.
