Please let me tell you about my wonderful wife, Jimmie Sue, and why I’m so desperate to save her life.
We met in 1956, cruising around the town square as boys and girls did back then. It was love at first sight. We dated for six months and then got married. We were madly in love and wanted to have a family. It didn’t take long before our family of two became five, with the addition of a daughter and two sons. We never had much but we had enough. And mostly, we had each other.
When Jimmie Sue was diagnosed with kidney disease, I was devastated. She is my everything and I can’t lose her. The first thing I wanted to do was give her my kidney but it turns out that not only is my kidney not a match for her, but neither are any of our children’s kidneys. So, I started walking around town wearing a big poster with my phone number on it and the words “Need Kidney 4 Wife.” People may think I’m a little strange but when I tell them about my Jimmie Sue, they understand.
So, I need someone to give Jimmie Sue a kidney, because the wait list is many years too long and she needs one now. But, if you can’t give her your kidney, then we need financial assistance to help with all of the medical bills associated with this disease and the hoped-for transplant.
To help with this financial burden, a fundraising campaign in Jimmie Sue’s honor has been established with HelpHOPELive, a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant community for 30 years. All donations are tax-deductible, are held by HelpHOPELive in the South-Atlantic Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by HelpHOPELive for transplant-related expenses only. Please consider making a donation to help Jimmie Sue.
