John grew up in Aransas Pass, TX, and has lived in Minnesota, New Mexico and now we are back in Texas. Over the years, he has worked hard on the docks, owned his own body shop and worked in road construction. He had an accident that crushed his skull. John’s life has not been easy, but he is always optimistic about whatever life throws his way. John looks forward to getting a transplant and living a long and full life.

John’s transplant will be very expensive both before and after transplant. Even with insurance, there are many expenses that are not covered and must be paid out of pocket. Some of these are co-pays, deductibles, travel to and from the transplant center and we will need to temporarily relocate at the time of transplant. In addition, he will be on a life-time of anti-rejection medications. This is where your help is desperately needed.

To help with the financial burden of John’s uninsured expenses, a fundraising campaign in John’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a trusted non-profit 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 South-Central Liver Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. To make a donation to this fundraising campaign, click on the Donate Now button.

Please follow John’s progress here. We will be posting fundraising updates as well as progress reports. We want everyone to see the things God has brought to us. Thank you for your ongoing prayers, support, love and generosity.
