Jeremy Eugene Matthews

By April he had been in and out of the hospital several times and the doctors had no idea what to do for him except refer him to Emory St Josephs in Atlanta. After extensive testing they worked him up for an LVAD( left ventricular assist device) on may 7th and he spent nearly 3 months in the hospital. After he got out in July he had to go back in for pneumonia and then in August, after his defibrillator fired 11 times, they found out he had a blood clot in his aorta. And now he is back in the hospital again now and they finally decided to move ahead with putting him on the transplant list.

In order to go on that list since he just has Medicare he is required to fundraise $5000 dollars that the gatransplant.org people are suppose to match to ensure he does not receive an organ that he cannot buy the medicines he needs to keep his body from rejecting it.

Family and friends of Jeremy Matthews are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.
