While transplants are lifesaving, they are also very expensive and Michelle needs your help. Michelle is currently undergoing extensive medical testing so she can be actively listed at the University of California, Davis Medical Center for her transplant.While her health insurance covers part of her surgery, Michelle has to travel over 300 miles every week for pre-transplant testing. She will also be required to pay out-of-pocket fees for travel and lodging, co-pays and deductibles, health insurance premiums and caregiver fees. Once she has her transplant surgery, Michelle will be required to take post-transplant, anti-rejection medications that she will need for the rest of her life. These out-of-pocket expenses are expected to cost upwards of $10,000/month, and Michelle needs your help.
Michelle is truly blessed with the gift of life, in that her Mother has volunteered to be Michelle’s living kidney donor! Like Michelle, her Mother will be required to undergo extensive medical testing, and will have many expenses which are not covered by health insurance, as well. Michelle is also trying to raise money to help with the financial burden of those who will be caring for and driving her mother back and forth to the hospital.
To help with this financial burden, a fundraising campaign in Michelle’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a trusted nonprofit organization that has been providing community-based fundraising guidance to patients and their families for more than 30 years. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the Southwest Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.
Thank you ahead of time for your generosity and kindness. Any donation amount, no matter how big or how small, is truly a generous gift and one step closer to Michelle’s successful transplant!
Gratefully,
Michelle’s loving family and friends
I have received a donated kidney. Please donate to those in need :)
I'm 30 years old setting up to have my first kidney transplant. Medically I am covered for now.I will be covered until three years after my surgery. However the road to my surgery is not covered.I will have to travel at least 300 miles a week for pre and aftercare work ups. I'm trying to raise money to help the financial burden of those who will be driving me back and forth to the hospital. My mother is preparing to be my donor and will be also taking the hour and a half drive back and forth.
I was a living donor for my daughter back in 1990. She passed away 2 years ago, awaiting another transplant. Take care of the new kidney and I will keep you in my prayers.
