I am a mother and a grandmother.
I have been blessed with a Wonderful Family.
I have Alpha1 antitripsyn Deficiency. This has caused Genetic Emphysema and now I need a double lung transplant.
I have been living with emphysema for a very long time.
It has been Very Hard on my family and me, living with this on a daily basis.
I want too personally thank:
my family, my doctors, my N.P., my nurses, & my friends for taking care of me, when I could not on my own.
Thank you for being there for me.
I’m ready to put an end to this illness.
I am ready to accept a Very Precious Gift of Life, Two precious Healthy Lungs.
I try to imagine how sweet it will be for me, to be able to breathe comfortably on my own with no oxygen, Wow.
This would be the best gift that I can even imagine.
While I am waiting for my double lung transplant I need your help. Please consider making a donation to help me out with the expenses that my insurance does not cover. Co-pays, travel, lodging, medication, caregiver and more.
I love you guys, & my Angels in Heaven that have been with me.
Thank you for being there for me.
Nancy Mercedes
My family and friends are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live in my honor, to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.
I chose to fundraise for Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility for contributors. Contributors can be sure donations will be used to pay or reimburse medical and related expenses. To make a tax-deductible donation to this fundraising campaign, click on the GIVE button.

January 14th, 2020 MGH called me and said they have beautiful, healthy lungs for me.
What a beautiful , precious gift the donor has given too me.
My surgery was successful. I spent five weeks in the hospital.
I'm home now and recovering from this surgery.
Although, I do not have my full strength back yet my breathing is amazing and I don't have too struggle for my breathe.
My oxygen tanks are now collecting dust and my grandchildren are counting down the days that I can play with them at the park.
I'm looking forward too walking the beach this summer.
Thank you everyone for your prayers, kind words and your donations.
