“You have been diagnosed with the rare disease of Amyloidosis of the heart.” With those few words, Paul Youngblood is now in a race against time to get a new heart. A heart transplant is the only thing that will save his life – there is no cure. With medical bills mounting and the cost of the heart transplant looming, not to mention the expense of the after care, Paul needs your help.
Paul has brought joy and laughter to everyone who knows him. He has given freely of his time and talent not expecting anything in return. Most of you know Paul as an artist, and knows he is in the room just by hearing his laughter. Help keep him laughing by keeping him alive.
