Wayne is a father of two sons, and a husband for 30 years. He has congenital heart and lung disease. Over his whole life, his heart and lungs have been degrading down to the point where his oxygen is low, running at around 79 of 100 all the time. This, as well as other complicated issues with his lungs, cause his blood to carry a very small amount of oxygen throughout his body. At this point, a heart and lung transplant is the only option he has to live. We are reaching out to Help Hope Live, and you all, in order to help us raise money for the daunting costs for a surgery like this.
He is outgoing, and very people oriented. After going on disability, he has worked with several children’s ministries. 3 or 4 different churches didn’t have programs for children, like Vacation Bible School. He started those, and worked with them for over ten years. He also is a very experienced auto mechanic, and would help those in need around him the best he could.
Your donations will allow Wayne, and his family, to travel to and from hospitals for treatment. Also with staying in a hospitality housing before, during, and after the surgery. Many of the costs with a procedure like this are not covered by insurance. Between pharmacy costs, recovery, and air medical transport, this whole procedure will require a sizable amount, both up-front and back end. Including lifesaving anti-rejection medications that he will need for the rest of his life after the transplant.
Donations will help with payments for these things, in addition to basic needs while traveling, like food and hotels. Sharing this campaign will increase the size of the network, allowing more people to have the opportunity to help. Doing this will help Wayne have a chance at a normal life, one he has never had the chance to experience.
Family and friends of Mark Klippert are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.
