Louis Paone was diagnosed with ESRD (End Stage Renal Disease) in March 2014. The news was devastating but with the love and support of Louis’ wife Christine and his family and friends, he has remained strong and determined to get well again. Even though Louis attends dialysis treatments three times a week for six hours at a time.
The great news is that Louis has just recently been approved to get on the transplant list with one condition. In order for Louis to be fully approved, his medical facility has advised him that he will need to be prepared to pay for the high cost of out-of-pocket expenses that will not be covered by insurance during and post-transplantation. One of the biggest costs will be the anti-rejection medication Louis will need to keep his new kidney healthy. Anti-rejection and other necessary medications can easily exceed $2,500.00 per month. This will be a long process but Louis is ready for the challenge and ready to feel healthy again.
For anyone who knows Louis, you know what a special person he is. He is always quick with a joke and a good word to make everyone smile. For those who do not know Louis personally, you will be helping not only a great person but his family and friends who love him so much and want to see him live a longer and happy life without the stress of worrying about how to pay for all of the upcoming out-of-pocket expenses.
To help with the financial burden of Louis’s uninsured expenses, a fundraising campaign in his 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-Atlantic Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. Please consider making a contribution by clicking Donate Now. No donation is too small and all donations are very much appreciated.
If you know anyone who may be willing to help Louis along this journey, please feel free to share this page and spread the word. Use any of the links on the right-hand side of this page under Share My Page: Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, etc. You will be saving the life of a wonderful man who means so much to so many people.
Thank you so much for your support!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all. I am getting closer to a kidney transplant. It will happen in 2021. I have been called in for a potential transplant but it didn’t work out. I hope 2021 is a magical year for all of us. Please share my link if you know anyone who can make a donation to help me. Thank you all.

Hi all. I want to wish everyone a great Holiday Season. I am finally doing well after a extremely tough year in which I needed to have my left foot amputated due to infection. I am still waiting to be called for a Kidney Transplant. I am hopeful that it happens in 2020. I STILL NEED YOUR HELP WITH DONATIONS TO MY FUND. INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER ALL THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH MY TRANSPLANT.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!
THANK YOU ALL

Hi Lou, I wish you good health. I am a Con Ed retiree as is my husband. In 1970, my husband along with 8 other Con Ed donors each contributed a pint of blood. The blood type was rare. The receiver was the 12 year old son of another Con Ed employee. The child needed surgery to correct a heart defect. The surgery was a success. Approximately 22 years later my husband and the boy who received the blood (went to work for Con Ed) met on the job in 1992. It was an accidental meeting. My husband recognized the boys name from a thank you letter he received from the Mutual Aid Society at Con Ed in 1970. Its is a wonderful story that came full circle. Your dad's request for help reminded me of this story. God Bless Connie Russo

Lou May God Bless Louis Paone and keep you in his care all the days of your life.

My husband worked for Con Ed for many years and is since passed on. I believe in the gift of giving and that the people who work for the company are compassionate and caring of each other. We knew the struggle and were blessed with the care we needed. Not many are. So on behalf of myself and my husband I wish you all the best for a very speedy recovery. God Bless You and yours and I hope this will help your cause.

Good Luck Louis! Stay Strong!
