Help Hope Live for Paul Ruzbarsky Jr.

A couple of years ago, our son, Paul John, and daughter, Megan, both moved to Florida. Shortly thereafter, we followed them moving to Florida and eagerly worked to get listed at Tampa General Hospital. Meladee is going to be my living donor and is a match for me (she is an angel!). We’ve both been approved for transplant and we’re working on the details to schedule the transplant.

The problem is we don’t live close to the hospital that would be doing the transplant. Thankfully, I do have insurance, but they do not cover the cost of staying near the hospital before, during, and after the procedure and follow up care. Both my wife and I will have multiple doctor visits leading up to and after the transplant, which will mean we will need to temporarily live closer to the hospital. It will be very difficult to maintain and pay for two households at the same time for several months, and we are unsure how much our medical bills will be.

My entire family would greatly appreciate any help you could provide to us during this time of need. Anything would help, even the smallest of donations would help us to pay for a place to live, the necessities we would need to get by and the medical bills we are going to incur. Please look at your situation, and if you are able to help in any way, please do so!

With everyone’s help, we will all make it through this to the other side of this illness. God Bless everyone and THANKS AGAIN for any help you can provide!

Sincerely,

Paul Ruzbarsky Jr, Meladee Ruzbarsky, and the Ruzbarsky Family
