Hi I’m Ronaldo Hinton 47 Years old. I’ve lived an active life until a viral fatty liver infection, cirrhosis damaged my liver.
I’ve been trying to manage my health with medication and diet but my doctor says that I’m going to need a transplant. I’m approved to receive a liver transplant but there is a lot of doctors appointments and back and forward tests that has to be done.
I love fishing with family and friends. I enjoy being at the lake having fun. Since my liver cirrhosis I’ve been on a strict diet which is hard on my schedule. I miss out on a lot of social time. I also struggle with sleep, bloating stomach tightness that keeps me awake at night, so I spend most of my day tired. I also retain fluids at times, making me self conscious about my looks.
I’m fundraising for the cost of relocating closer to my transplant team as I will need to stay nearby for six weeks after my release from the hospital. I will also need to pay my co-pays and out of pocket expenses for the surgery that insurance doesn’t cover and I want to be able to cover the cost for a living donor if I can find one.
My team estimates this will cost about $9,000 and this amount could double or triple if I experience any setbacks or complications. I hope that my liver transplant will allow me to get back to my normal life. Please donate to Help Hope Live in my honor today and ask your friends and family to give too. Please share my page on your social media platforms.
Thank you for your generous support!
My family and friends are raising money in my honor, Ronaldo Hinton for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with a transplant. I have chosen to fundraise with Help Hope Live in part because donations are tax deductible for contributors and will only be used to cover medical and related expenses.
Thank you,
