Deborah Graumann

Deborah Graumann is the mother of two wonderful daughters, who along with her four active grandsons are the sources of pride and energy in her life. Some of you may know her from various Correctional Medical units she worked over the last 20 years, others from the softball, baseball, football bleacher’s and behind the bucking chutes with our bulls.

Unfortunately, all that is on hold because COPD and residual COVID-19 effects have made breathing exceedingly difficult. Even on oxygen 24/7 she can no longer do the things of normal daily living. Her only option is a lung transplant to allow her to return to the life she loved with family and friends.

The expenses related to transplant are enormously high. Even with insurance there are many expenses that must be covered out of pocket. A lifetime of expensive medications, longtime recovery support and many more unforeseeable expenses.

This is where we need your support. To help her with the financial burden of uninsured expenses, a fundraising campaign in her 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.

Deborah has chosen to fundraise for Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility for contributors. Contributors can be sure donations will be used to pay or reimburse medical and related expenses. To make a tax-deductible donation to this fundraising campaign, click on the Give button.

On behalf of Deborah and her entire family thank you for your donations, support, and prayers.
