Alexandra Stoller-Ives

Family and friends, as most of you know I have just undergone a kidney transplant (6/23/21). I had been struggling with ESRD during a pandemic and was advised by my doctor’s and mentors (other kidney disease survivors) to step away from my job.

My wonderful husband is my donor and while I am so glad he has been able to save my life, the financial strain that comes with us both being down and out in addition to needing very expensive medications for the rest of my life, is stressful. He has the role of not only donor but full time caretaker as soon as he is back on his feet.

I will be unable to go back to work for at least one year and Ryan will be out of work for a few months as his surgery has made it so he can’t lift more than 10lbs for a time. This doesn’t work well for someone who does mostly construction.

We will be traveling between Flagstaff and Phoenix often for doctors appointments. Donations will be mostly put towards travel costs and medical expenses not covered.

As homesteaders with a four year old our life is one of hard work and long days anyway but we wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Any donations you can give to keep our dream alive as we recover would be greatly appreciated.
Every bale of hay
Every bag of feed
Every gallon of water
Counts.

With love and gratitude,
Alexandra E. Stoller (Ives)
