**Help Save a Life: Support My Journey to a Heart Transplant**

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind-hearted Strangers,

I need your help to stay alive. That might sound dramatic, but it’s my reality right now. I need a new heart, and the costs are crushing me. Between losing my ability to work and my children’s SSI payments (they just turned eighteen), I’m down $2,000 a month. And the bills? They keep coming. Here’s the thing: getting a new heart isn’t just about the surgery. It’s about somehow getting from Baltimore to Philadelphia and D.C. for endless doctor’s appointments. It’s about affording medications I’ll need for the rest of my life. It’s about keeping a roof over my head while I fight for my life. I’ve never been good at asking for help. But right now, I don’t have a choice. Every dollar helps – whether it’s covering gas for a doctor’s visit or helping with my heart medication. And if you can’t donate? Sharing my story means just as much. I know everyone’s going through tough times. But if you can help, even a little, you’ll be doing more than saving my life. You’ll be giving my family their mom back. Thank you for reading this. Really.
