The great news is that earlier this year after all the adversity I finally received my kidney transplant!! The kidney started working immediately and my recovery process has been better than I could have ever imagined. I no longer have to be on dialysis. As well, I feel this incredible gift has been the biggest blessing of my life. I’m eternally grateful for this precious, precious freedom and looking forward to living life to the fullest with my healthy organ.

Even with insurance, l unfortunately have uninsured post transplant-related expenses such as: co-pays and deductibles, out of town doctor visits and procedures, and the costly immunosuppressant medications that I must take for the rest of my life. Raising approximately $50,000 is a task I cannot manage alone. I sincerely need your assistance.

To help with this financial burden, a fundraising campaign in my honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant community for 30 years. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the Great Lakes Kidney Transplant Fund and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. Please consider making a contribution today by clicking the DONATE NOW button.

If you feel comfortable passing my story along to some of your friends who might be willing to make a donation too, please feel free to do so. I have fought this disease for many years and I will not stop.

Any and all donations will be greatly appreciated!
Donations are 100% tax deductible.
There will be no credit card fee for online donations between midnight on Tuesday, November 30 and 3 AM Eastern time on Wednesday, December 1.

My sincere thanks and gratitude
Deborah Diaz
