Darwin (who goes by Buzz) had his whole life flipped upside down this past March.
Buzz was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Disease in March of 2022. Up until this point, he was the “master welder, painter, upholsterer, and fixer of anything broken”. He was the fun Papa Bear to his 7 grandbabies, who showed them what camping, and fishing was all about. He is unable to do any of those things now, and this has completely broken him. The bills are piling up quickly, with past due notices coming in, and payment plans that we cannot manage.
This has been a complete life changing event for him, and I am asking everyone to help so that maybe a part of his life can go back to normal.
Buy a tee designed by Buzz to help with the unexpected costs that we have come across: https://www.bonfire.com/save-the-buzzard/
All profit from the tees goes directly towards his medical bills.
Darwin 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.

The best update…. On Thursday July 20th, Darwin got the call that we have been waiting for! He rushed to Largo hospital and received a kidney transplant.
It looks like he will discharge from the hospital on Tuesday 7/25 and start his next chapter! We are forever thankful for the all of the prayers, support and donations we received this last year and a half. Thanks for helping Save The Buzzard!!
We are so excited to share that Darwin has been accepted on to the kidney transplant list!
We are in search of a LIVING kidney donor!! For more information, please visit https://linktr.ee/dhedges and you will be able to view more information on the kidney transplant process and the donor process. We appreciate all of your support during this time!
Update as of 12/9/22:
Buzz had AV Fistula surgery a couple months back, and the surgery failed. His doctor was quick to have him scheduled for a graph surgery for a dialysis access point, as of now he is healing okay and hasn't had any issues. Please keep sharing Buzz's story, along with this link. We are forever thankful for all of you!
