My daughter Laura was diagnosed with renal failure in November of 2009. Like any other 12-year old, she enjoys computer games, riding her scooter and talking on her cell phone. Laura is also a talented aspiring anime artist. Her teachers at Huffines Middle School describe her as a precious and courageous young lady with a positive outlook through these difficult circumstances.
Laura’s illness has progressed to end stage renal disease and she will soon need a kidney transplant. Her older sister, Jessica Bowery, will undergo testing to be the living donor.
Laura was evaluated at Children’s Medical Center Dallas and is a good candidate for transplant, but the surgical team determined that another surgery was medically necessary to correct a chronic colon issue. That surgery was successfully performed on March 25, 2011 and Laura’s tiny body is responding well. She is currently being treated with peritoneal dialysis on a cycler machine at home each night.
Transplants are extremely expensive and costs can be devastating. Even though the insurance company will cover the bulk of the procedure, there are co-payments for hospital stays, radiology, laboratory and very expensive medications needed for the rest of Laura’s life. To help defray these costs, a fundraising campaign has been established in Laura’s honor through the HelpHOPELive. HelpHOPELive is a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant community for over twenty-five years. To make a tax-deductible contribution:

It’s never easy to ask for assistance, but funding Laura’s transplant and medication cost is a difficult challenge and we need your help. Your financial gifts and prayers will be greatly appreciated.

Was so happy to get to meet you in december when you were in Arkansas. Wish we were all living closer together so we could get together more. My granddaughter Haylie thought you were a neat girl and loved Fred like she does. Know we are praying for you here and trusting God for a miracle for you.

I don't know you personally Laura, but I do know your dad, uncles and grandfather...as well as grandma Laura while she was with us! I wish and your mom and dad all the best with your medical care and recovery. I am an RN and have told your dad (and now your mom)...if there is anything I can do, please let me know. I am in Colorado, so there are limits, but I would do anything I could to assist. A donation here to start. Not much, but every little bit helps. Stay strong little girl!
