In early May 2019, Alan suffered a heart attack that was initially un-diagnosed for twelve hours. He had thrown a clot and this began his journey to and through heart failure, LVAD, and transplant.
Alan is a fun-loving and adventurous young man, loyal to his siblings and family, and just an awesome person. He has so much to live for. Donations will help he and his caregivers with relocation expenses, out-of-pocket medication costs, and living expenses. For those who don’t know, relocation means on-site “residency”at Mayo Clinic during recovery and rehabilitation after surgery. This expense isn’t covered for LVAD, and could easily reach $8,000-$10,000. He’ll also need specialized clothing for the LVAD equipment.
Family and friends of Alan Clark are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.
Alan has chosen 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.

Thank you for your support!
**** HAPPIEST OF UPDATES *****
Alan got "THE CALL" from the MAYO transplant team about noon Feb 11. Come up as soon as you can - we have a compatible heart waiting in the wings for you"" !!!!
Transplant was successful about noon on Feb 12. Perfect Valentine's Day gift, early.
The new heart is functioning properly, perked up near immediately upon getting into it's new home, and he is resting comfortably.
And once again -- I'm putting this out there, we could use some help with the first couple months' residency during recovery and initial doctor's appointments; and he'll need support going forward with meds...
Any little bit helps, and builds on itself..
Thanks all
So it's early November. Election is over (finally). And Alan will be getting listed this week. We are still fundraising (or continuing it - we had put a pause for a while)..
Once transplant happens, we will be back in N. Phoenix/Scottsdale for up to 3 months again, and facing the same expenses.. It can possibly be up to $12,000 just to have a place to live while he recovers..
After recovery, there will be monthly checks for the first year (and the cost of hotels..).. Any little bit helps, and it all adds up..
July 27 - we got word that we can return home from 2 **MONTHS** living in Scottsdale after the LVAD installation in May .. It's been a rollercoaster, but he's doing so very well. He's living with the VAD == and that's the key== he's LIVING.
With COVID, being able to visit with family and friends has been difficult at best, and generally impossible.. Going home by the first week of August will be a welcome refresh and be able to reconnect with family and friends.
We want to thank everyone for all their support through the beginnings of this journey -- and we are just at the beginning. Many more years ahead is the hope
peace
Alan has been released from MAYO as of June 9. 48 days in the hospital in Phoenix.. 3 days prior to that in Tucson before Banner UMC transferred him up to MAYO.. He's doing really well (or they would not have released him!! LOL).
But we do have a long road still ahead of us. The potential for meds not being covered... The potential for more appointments in Phoenix rather than at home in Tucson (and the expenses incurred with that travel....) We still need your help.. Any and all little bit helps == and spreading the word around for others to donate will also help..
