Noelle needs new lungs, We need YOU!
If you know Noelle Doughty, you know light.
Noelle radiates kindness, humor, and a beauty that comes from deep within. She has always been the warm laugh in the room, the voice that could electrify tiny dives and big stages alike — never once forgetting where she came from.
From late nights in beloved Hudson Valley haunts — The Rhinecliff, New World, Tinker St. Café, Cabaloosa — to NYC and beyond, Noelle poured her vocals and her spirit into Funktional Loonacy, Monica’s Kneepads, and her original project, Lotus Revival. Eventually, she made her way to California, where she fronted the all-female Zeppelin tribute band Zepparella.
Throughout it all, Noelle shared her voice, her heart, and her unmistakable magic with all of us. Her music held us then, and it continues to lift us and stay with us now.
Now, Noelle needs us to lift her.
Noelle is facing the most profound challenge of her life. She has been living with LAM — Lymphangioleiomyomatosis — a very rare and progressive lung disease. The week of her birthday, the incredible medical team at UCSF gave her hope for a second chance at breath and life. She is now officially listed and waiting for a bilateral (double-lung) transplant.
As Noelle put it, “I feel like an astronaut blasting off into the unknown.”
And so we stand with her as she launches into that unknown — with love, with humor, with fierce hope.
The Cost of Healing
When someone faces a life-altering illness, the path forward requires far more than medical treatment. True healing demands space — emotional, mental, and physical — free from the weight of fear and financial strain.
The last thing Noelle and her family should have to navigate right now is the added pressure of financial instability. What she needs most is the ability to meet this fight with a clear mind, steady heart, and every ounce of strength she can gather. Every human being deserves that in the midst of a crisis: the dignity of focusing on survival, not on whether they can afford it.
A Note About Asking for Help
If you know Noelle, you know how fiercely independent she is. One of the reasons she has kept her story private is that asking for help is genuinely difficult for her. That’s why we, her friends, are making this ask on her behalf. Love sometimes means stepping in when someone is too brave, too humble, or too self-sufficient to ask for themselves.
Noelle deserves to meet this moment without the weight of financial fear. And we, her community, have the privilege of helping make that possible.
The journey ahead includes:
Pre-transplant care and living expenses
Medical costs not covered by insurance
Housing in San Francisco, near UCSF
Post-transplant care and living expenses
Support for caregivers providing essential, around-the-clock care during her extensive recovery
This is where community becomes a lifeline.
How We Can Help
The coming year will be physically, emotionally, and financially overwhelming. Noelle will be unable to work and must conserve every bit of her energy as she prepares for transplant. You are part of Noelle’s broad and beloved community, which is why we are reaching out. We need to come together and lift the immense financial strain so Noelle can focus on the life-saving work ahead — preparing for transplant, receiving treatment, and then the long, demanding road of recovery.
With Love Comes Boundaries
Noelle treasures her friends deeply, and your love means everything. Please remember that her energy is limited right now, and she may not be able to respond to everyone. To stay updated, please click “Subscribe” on the campaign page to receive updates directly from the Help Hope Live website.
Please Give Generously
Noelle has given so much — her voice, her spirit, her kindness, her art. Now it’s our turn. Whether it’s $10 or $10,000 (or more!), your gift matters. Whether you share this link or send quiet love, it matters.
Noelle has always trusted in the healing force of prayer and the collective warmth of positive energy. She welcomes both with an open heart, so please send prayers and all the good energy you can.
Together, we breathe life back into the lungs that once gave us songs.
Let’s help Noelle breathe easy again.
🌈 💜 ✌🏼🎵

Health Update on Noelle: HealingNoelle is now nearly two weeks out from her bilateral lung transplant, and in so many ways, she is doing remarkably well. We are deeply grateful for the progress she’s made and the strength she continues to show each day.At the same time, we want to be real about what this journey looks like. Recovery from a surgery of this magnitude is not linear. There are good days that feel encouraging, and there are harder days that can feel like two steps back, one step forward. It is, at times, painful, exhausting, and overwhelming.Noelle is facing it all with incredible focus and determination. Right now, her entire world is centered on healing—breath by breath, step by step. She is committed, resilient, and doing the hard work this recovery requires.She also wants everyone to know how deeply she feels the love and support surrounding her. Every message, prayer, and act of kindness has mattered more than we can express. She knows, without a doubt, that she would not be getting through this without all of you. She cannot have flowers or plants, but cards and pictures are welcome. She's not discharged yet from the hospital, but hopefully in the next few days. DM for address.This is a long road, and we are in the early stages. But there is real progress, real hope, and a fierce spirit carrying her forward.Thank you for continuing to walk alongside her. 🙏🏻❤️🩹🌹

A Health Update for Noelle — Post-Lung Transplant -April 9Noelle continues to recover after her successful bilateral lung transplant. She has been incredibly moved by the outpouring of love — hundreds of texts, emails, and messages. It’s a little overwhelming for her to read them all right now, but she says she can truly feel them deeply. Thank you for surrounding her with so much love and care.Some good progress: Today, she was moved out of the ICU into a room! Two of the four drains are gone, and she has been able to eat and drink. She’s also been getting up and walking — which she says is her favorite thing right now. Hospital life has its own rhythm. Noelle is noticing the quiet lessons about people helping people — custodial staff, nurses, doctors, and caregivers all moving around each other in this intricate dance of care. It’s made her deeply aware of how much we rely on one another, and she says there is something truly magical in witnessing that. The irony is not lost on being in the hospital /getting "the call" on Good Friday and her transplant heading into Easter, has also had her thinking about her grandmothers, Lilly and Viola, and about the ways generations gather around us in spirit during moments like these. Between medications and the surreal experience of recovery, she’s even had some vivid dreams and hallucinations — at one point imagining something like a great gathering, reminiscent of the Last Supper, with everyone coming together. There are signs of hope everywhere. She described clover at the end of the valleys, reaching up into branches like little four-leaf clovers in her lungs—small symbols of luck and life pushing forward. If you’d like to send something, cards and pictures are very welcome (please no flowers or plants).

An update on Noelle Doughty, 2 days post-bilateral lung transplant surgery—She is recovering! Today she walked to the end of the hall. She saw her new lungs on the screen when they went in with the scope. The Doctor is pleased with how they look. The entire team at UCSF has been extraordinary. Noelle has her “Lung League” of devoted Soul Sisters, light workers, family, and dear friends across the universe, sending protection and prayer. She herself is a real spiritual warrior. Noelle is one of the bravest people I know, who has taught me to truly believe in miracles. I believe her success, progress, and healing are from this continuous energy collective surrounding her. Her “Lungiversary” is April 4. Our lives have also been forever changed by this life-giving gift. I’m a proud organ donor, and this is what’s possible. It’s been one of the most emotional 48 hours in my life to date. I’m so grateful.

Noelle UPDATE: Easter Sunday 4/5/26 Edition! The nurses say she is breaking records for the speed of her recovery. Some of us had a brief FaceTime to see her take her first breath without the ventilator today. Since yesterday, post-surgery, she has stood up in a chair and walked a short distance. Jesse Scherer summarized it best, saying: “We always knew she was a determined, strong, and courageous human, and seeing her now, how beautifully and gracefully she is moving through this process, embodies her supernatural being. We will forever be in awe of her bravery, her faith, and the miracle of medicine.” Please continue to hold her in your heart and prayers as she assimilates these new lungs and begins this next phase of recovery. We will continue to keep you updated. 🫁🙌🏻❤️🩹
April 4, 2026
UPDATE: Dear Friends, With hearts full of gratitude, hearts melting, and tears of joy, we share that Noelle’s bilateral lung transplant took place in the early hours this morning and was a success! She’s now in the ICU, stable, and being monitored closely. The surgeon/ team said it went well! And while Noelle is resting and sedated this morning, we can feel hope blooming. We ask for your continued prayers, as we believe in their power and in miracles. These lungs 🫁 are hers—she will recover, she will thrive, and she will sing again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your boundless love and continued support. 🙏🏻❤️

Welcome to the Good Friday edition of “ I Got The Call” Let’s pick up where we left off. It was Monday evening March 23rd when the actual call came through and I high tailed it to SF with the hopes of new lungs being transplanted on my brother Ryan’s birthday. When I arrived, they said it was a 50% chance because it was a DCD donor. The lungs were deemed ”okay”… but my team said “I think we can do better!” So I said let’s do better! Somehow I had this feeling it wasn’t going to happen on the 24th because my brother would hate that I hijacked his birthday with all the attention! Sorry Ryan but you know it’s true! 🤣 This week’s episode begins last night at about 10:30 pm when I was just about to slip into the covers from out of the bath. The phone rang with a number from Myrtle Beach, SC. I looked at it… and I said to myself - yup… you’re not getting any sleep tonight! I picked it up and a lovely woman told me that there were lungs for me and to start getting my stuff together. I would need to get there tonight for the prep. Did I mention that the starter went in my car yesterday? Well it did, so that further complicated things. Fast forward - we made it to the hospital and there was very little sleep….. but … I GOT THE CALL and that is all that matters!!! I was going to wait to post until they confirmed that the lungs were viable; but that happens just before surgery. Anyone who knows me, knows I love a good adventure and therefore most of the people I know are of the adventurous persuasion. So I thought I’d take you on the adventure with me and let you know that surgery is tentatively scheduled at 10pm this evening, Good Friday or the best Friday I’ll ever have!!!! Stay tuned! ☦️🙏🪬🕉️🌖♥️🎉🪷🫁💃🥰🧘♀️🏥🪻🤍💒
March 29, 2026
UPDATE: The surgery is canceled! Thank you for all your love, positivity and prayers. I really admire the team here and their discernment for obtaining the right lungs for me. They just came in and told me that the lungs are ok but we could wait for better ones. So I’m going home… still dreaming about the better.. the perfect… the lungs that are meant to carry me through the rest of my life. I am filled with all your love and hope.
March 29, 2026
I got the CALL - Again! Yesterday I was called in for an evening admittance. My surgery is scheduled for 3:30 PST today. There is a 50% chance that I will receive these lungs due to the nature of the donor’s death. It is called DCD or Donation after Circulatory Death. I have actually had 2 other calls before this one which I did not announce. One of these calls was a DCD. Here is a clear explanation of what this is:https://share.google/8V1DRsRpngTBEzEBGI am asking again for your prayers and positive vibes today! Prayers for the donor family, the surgeons, the doctors, nurses and all the healthcare team for a successful surgery. Thank you for being in my life and on this journey with me. I’ll keep you posted!!!! ♥️🙏🎉🫁🪬🕉️
February 24, 2026
It’s been six-ish weeks since I got ‘the call’ and came home with the same lungs I left with. I thought by now I would have gotten another donor offer. That hasn’t happened. Every transplant recipient has a different story. Generally speaking, I do think that donor offers come closer together once you have had a dry run. I tell myself that I can’t be disappointed - and I shouldn’t be but secretly there is some of that living inside of me. I am ready, at least I feel that way. But …...maybe those lungs are not ready to leave the soul they are giving breath to. These precious days are somebody’s last days on earth. I know we are all energy and spirit and that can never die, I believe our spirits never die, but a family will lose their loved one. A community and the world will lose a loved one, and that will be devastating. That person is still meant to be here and I am still meant to wait. There was a time that I thought there was no way out of this disease. I would continue to feel one breath at a time until I finally suffocated. Then, I would sail off into the mystic. Sorry to be dramatic - but that is the truth. There was a time when I would not entertain the idea of a transplant because the odds and the side effects felt like they outweighed a positive outcome. Everyday progress is being made. Now I am so ecstatic to have this option. All I have to do is wait. And I am sorry Tom Petty - but I don’t think the waiting is the hardest part. I know there will be harder parts. I feel like I am in the ‘set’ phase of ‘ready, set, go’. For me it’s more like ‘sit’. It’s a time to sit with myself, acknowledge, accept and be patient. In this time I am thinking a lot about all of you. I am living vicariously through all of you. So please just live the life you love and I hope to rejoin you soon. I’m watching you (sounds creepy when I write it - HA)! Make everyday count and makesure you tell your people you love them. It’s the simplest and purest way to spread light. My time is gonna come. It will. Hopefully my next update will be from the hospital. I know that all of us have family to support and burdens to carry. I want to thank everyone who has supported me by donating to the campaign, attending a fundraiser, being a part of my fundraising team, those on the Luscious Lungs League, my power of 8 healers, my yoga studio - Serenity Soul Yoga, my pulmonary rehab family at Mercy, my care team at Stanford, UCSF and UCDavis, my airport friends, my musical community, my friends and my family. Thank you for all of your loving kindness and generosity. Thank you for choosing to help me. I will say this every time because it needs to be said. I couldn't do this without you. I give gratitude and pray everyday for all of you - the blessings in my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I LOVE YOU!!!
January 10, 2026
UPDATE on the update: Beloveds and prayer warriors, the lungs are not viable. They started to decrease in function. They are not my new lungs. I will go home today, not transplanted. I call this a dress rehearsal but in the medical field it’s called a dry run. This can always happen right up until they are about to make their first incision. My medical team wants to ensure that I have the best possible lungs with the best possible outcome. As excited and anxious I was about starting this journey today.. I am grateful for the knowledge and expertise of the transplant team to know they are not for me. I love you all so much - I am swimming in love and strength and being held by angels. Thank you for being with me every step of the way… we have more to go.
January 10, 2026
It’s a beautiful day for a lung transplant! I am awaiting my team to speak to me and confirm my surgery for 10pm this evening (January 10th). Grateful for all of your love, strength and continued prayers for myself and the donor’s family. Tayata OM. Love is real and not fade away. I feel all the love so deeply…
January 10, 2026
THEY HAVE LUNGS FOR ME! I got the call, I am on my way to the hospital. Thank you for all your prayers and love. I feel like you are all standing on the sides of the road cheering me on as I make my way to San Francisco where I will receive a miracle. My faith is unshakeable. I ask for your continued prayers and prayers for the donor family. I love you all. This prayer was just texted to me from my Rumi Jesse Scherer.May the hands that work today be steady, wise, and guided beyond what they know.May every breath be supported, every decision clear, every moment protected.May the gift of these lungs be received with grace and acceptance,and may the body recognize them as home.May there be calm in the operating room,clarity in the minds of the doctors,and strength in Noelle's heartMay fear soften,may pain be eased,may healing begin immediately and continue steadily.May the donor be honored,their gift carrying life, love, and peace forward.And may those who are waiting, loving, and hopingfeel held, steadied, and not alone.

In the Light…
We walk through the world with private stories and internal battles. As someone who has lived a somewhat public life, I have been carrying a deeply personal secret. Soon after the birth of my son, I began to experience shortness of breath. I thought it could be the extra baby weight I was carrying, or asthma developing. I didn’t really know, and hoped that whatever it was would eventually go away.
Winter came, and so did sickness. I had all the tell-tale signs of bronchitis. We were traveling in Colorado and the altitude was making it so difficult to breathe that I worried it might be turning into pneumonia. I went to an urgent care and got an X-ray of my lungs. The next day, one of the doctors called me back and told me he suspected I had emphysema. That didn’t seem accurate because emphysema is a smoking-related disease, and I’m not a smoker. It was recommended that I figure this out with my primary care physician once I returned to California… at the time, I didn’t even have one.
I finally found a great doctor who ordered pulmonary tests and CT scans. And then, while I was still waiting for answers - I was off to Hawaii for work.
Riding Along…
At that time in my life, my husband and I were road reps for multiple fashion lines. We lived between New York and California but traveled extensively around the U.S. We would run around the country selling clothes, then run back to New York to play with our disco-funk band, Monica’s Kneepads; see my family; and reconnect with our beautiful community there… and then land in California, where we were trying to establish a new home for our family. It was a privilege to visit Hawaii 4–5 times a year to sell our beautiful clothing lines — it felt like our third home.
It was Monday, May 5 — Cinco de Mayo — and we had plans to go to a festival in Honolulu that evening. We were on Oahu with three appointments in three different directions, and there was literally no downtime between them. We were driving from the North Shore on the H2 back to Waikiki with a car full of samples, dress racks, and my little toddler strapped in the back seat. My new doctor called with some pretty upsetting news. She proceeded to tell me that I had a very rare and progressive lung disease called LAM.
I thought… no way! This can't be me! I can belt hours of raw rock and roll any night of the week — you must have the wrong patient! I do not have some disease, especially not one involving my lungs. I figured I was just a little short of breath. By this time, the bronchitis was long gone, and I was thinking that maybe if I just lost those last five pounds of baby weight, I'd feel better. Denial, denial, denial.
She repeated the diagnosis and told me I would have to see a lung specialist once I got back to the mainland. She explained that it was hormonally induced and that at the time, there was no treatment. There is no cure. She asked me several times if I was okay and offered me a prescription for Xanax — which I declined. I was in shock. You never forget where you are when your life changes forever.
Anything Can Happen in a Moment…
I searched the internet for anything about this 25-letter disease: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis. Did I mention only women get it? At that time, there were only about 750 reported cases, making it one of, if not the, rarest lung diseases. There was very little information to be found, and what was available was bleak; statistics were horrific. To this day, most healthcare workers are not familiar with LAM. I carry a card with a QR code so that if I ever need emergency care, the medical team can retrieve accurate information.
I returned to California and met with a lung transplant doctor at UC Davis — a large, very unhealthy-looking man who sat me down and said things like, “You’ve got Swiss cheese for lungs,” and “If we were to have a race, I’d outrun you.” He told me, “You need a transplant, and if you don’t die from LAM, you’ll die from transplant disease.” When I said, “I have to believe I can heal myself,” he replied that would get me into “a whole lotta trouble.” He added, “You might live 15 years, if you’re lucky.” (By the way, that was 15 years ago.)
What about my son? What about my life? I don’t want to die. I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!!!
I left his office and walked directly across the street to the local tequila bar. It’s ironic how much clarity can come when you’re sitting at a bar. A lot of my best — and worst — decisions have been made there. Between fear and tequila, I made some distinct decisions. I knew I had to rely on my instincts, and I had to be my own advocate.
A naturopath I was working with told me about the LAM Foundation in Cincinnati, which was created by Sue Byrnes after her daughter, Andrea, was diagnosed. Together with her husband, Fran Byrnes, and Dr. Francis McCormack, they built a foundation dedicated to research and patient support (https://www.thelamfoundation.org). I also learned there was a LAM clinic at Stanford within reach.
After dusting myself off from the avalanche of negativity that the last doctor had dropped on me, I sent my CT scans to both places and scheduled an appointment at Stanford to finally get real answers. I changed my diet, lost the weight, and prayed it was all a big mistake.
All Will Be Revealed…
I remember wearing all white at this time in my life because I wanted to attract the light. I wanted to bring the light. I wanted to give the light. I wanted to be the light.
So there I was at Stanford, dressed all in white, meeting for the first time with the pulmonologist who would become an integral part of my life. He walked into the room on crutches with two broken legs. He had fallen while attempting to climb a frozen waterfall. He almost didn’t make it out of there… and then they wanted to take his leg. Well much to my dismay, he confirmed my diagnosis. Not only did I have LAM; I had a severe case. The only thing that gave me solace in that meeting was the fact that I had a Doctor who not only had to fight for his life but that he won. Thank you Dr. Ruoss!!!
LAM is an invisible disease — meaning you don’t look sick. I didn’t look sick then, and I don’t look sick now. I was in the prime of my life, with hopes and dreams that did not include an incurable disease. I was a musician, a business owner, a mom. I had big plans... I still do!
Mostly, I tried to ignore it. The last thing I wanted to do was acknowledge it. I thought people would look at me differently, treat me differently, or feel sorry for me. I worried they’d doubt my abilities as a singer or in anything I wanted to accomplish. So I kept it to myself… because admitting it would make it real. I went on to pursue my goals because nothing was going to stop me from living the life I love. I managed to perform nationally, travel, start several businesses, be a soccer mom, and create… for a while.
Slowly, my breath was being taken from me. The people closest to me have always known and helped me every step of the way. They have watched me go from a vibrant, active, lover-of-life go-getter to where I am now.
Walk to kneel to crawl..
Today, I struggle with every breath — the one thing most people never even think about. I have become more of an observer than a participant. My portable oxygen container is now my constant accessory. There is a lot of life left in this body, but these lungs — the ones that have blessed me with millions of songs, laughter, tears, and have held my grief — are failing.
Every day I wake up and say, “Thank you, God, for this beautiful life, and thank you, God, for this beautiful day.” I am so truly grateful for the love I have received: for my family, my friends, my community, the sages and seers, the mystics, the spiritual guides and mentors, for music — sweet music — and for the manifestations and magic that have surrounded me my whole life.
I have lived an extraordinary life!!!! Seriously... many of my wildest dreams have come true! To say I am blessed is an understatement; It hasn’t been easy, but it has been amazing.
So folks… now it’s time to be vulnerable and transparent. There has been great sadness and deep grief in not being able to sing or dance. I have mourned the loss of my former life. It is a constant letting go and acceptance. I have brushed off and ignored many beautiful musical invitations and opportunities without disclosing why… and now you know. I'm sorry, I wasn't ready to talk about it. Now you know.
This is my truth: I need new lungs. The time has come.
Singing was my life, and I hope to have it again. I want to dance with you at that show. I want to be there for my family, for my friends, for me … for you.
I really want that next chapter. So I am filling myself us with complete optimism, with hope, with love and with light to manifest this transformation. I believe in miracles and in the power of prayer and positivity. I have a spectacular group of healers who have been meditating on the healing of my lungs for years.
This is only the beginning. It will not be easy and it does take a village. Thank you for listening.
I am so blessed and grateful for the life I have lived… and for all you in my life. I couldn't do it without you.
And.... I can’t wait to meet my new being.

Was near the front row for eight or nine of your Seattle shows over the years, Noelle, and bought you a Jameson or two after a couple of them. Will never forget what you brought to that Zepparella band. God bless and good healing.

Noelle,
You might not remember me, but we walked the same halls at AHS. We briefly chatted at Adams Fairacre Farms in the late 90\'s. You looked like a rock star. I was in awe, when you told me about your musical career and some of the musicians you had met. You were living your dream. Now, some 25 years later, you are still living an incredible life with an unfortunate detour. I\'m so sorry to hear about this. You have a difficult road ahead, but you\'re an incredibly strong woman. I\'ll be praying that you\'ll be singing and dancing again, until your heart\'s desire is overflowing with joy and happiness.

My sister received a heart transplant this year on St. Patrick\'s Day....it was a true miracle. It\'s been quite a long journey and an \"adventure\" for all of us. She\'s doing well with just a few setbacks which is expected. This took place in Gainesville Florida at Shands UF hospital. They do a lot of successful transplants and have amazing doctors. I hope that you can get the transplant you need soon...just keep on believing! Sending LOTS of prayers your way!!

My late wife went through the same thing . She was a singer in a rock band here in Florida . Aries Stead was her name . They told her she had LAM as well . She did get the double lung transplant at Shands in Gainesville in 2016 and took high risk lungs . She made it until 2019 . I’m sorry that you have to go through this .

My beloved Doppleganger, you know how deeply I cherish and admire you. When you came to my Yoga class, it felt like a beautiful reunion of souls from another time. I asked you to sing, and without any hesitation, you opened your heart and shared your stunning voice right there in the studio. Tears streamed down my face as I felt like I had heard an angel. Since that moment, our lives have intertwined in the most meaningful way, and I yearn to hear you sing again. We have poured our hopes and prayers into seeking a miracle, and now here we are. You embody everything that is inspirational, beautiful, compassionate, and generous. You truly are a lovely light in this world.

Roger, Houston, we have LIFT OFF!
Here we go, deeply connected, grateful for this moment to be anything and everything for you, Beloved Noelle!
Every song you sang you shared your heart, your breath, your beauty. Your love has led us all here, to this very moment of time, to this call to action, this rally of support to be met by your profound courage and epic proportions of receiving. Receiving, like Ocean receives her waves, washing over her, fluid and rhythmic like breath itself.
Precious One, you ARE light, you ARE love, and you are completely, unapologetically, gloriously YOU!

I love this time of year—especially gathering with friends and family. Sadly, this year there will be no Winter Solstice gathering at Springtown Rd. While we’ll miss that tradition, we are choosing to honor the season in a different way. In celebration of Noelle’s birthday, and in recognition of the tremendous news that she has officially been placed on the transplant list, my husband and I are making a donation. Beyond a monetary contribution, we are sending an abundance of love, light, and positive energy.
We never truly know how strong we are until life places unexpected challenges in our path. It’s in these moments that our true character emerges. Noelle, you are standing up for yourself—your needs, your future, your life—and there is such power in that. You are a warrior.
You show your courage every single day. Please know that we love you and are with you every step of the way.
