Joey Walker

Joey Needs Our Help!

Joe Walker “Joey” is a 62 year old Navy Veteran who was diagnosed with end stage liver disease in December 2016.

On December 23rd 2016, Joey was in ICU on a ventilator for 6 days, in a coma, and was not expected to make it. By the grace of God, he made it through that, but has had several hospital stays since.

Joey has issues with extreme fatigue and short term memory loss now and is unable to do the things that he loves, like walking his two dogs Bear and Riley, working out, going to dinner and a movie. There are some days that he cannot be left alone and I need to stay home from work.

Joey has been working very closely with Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville Fl and has met all the requirements for liver transplant , except one. Mayo Clinic will not list him for transplant until we have raised at least $7-10,000 dollars to cover the cost of uninsured after care (30 day stay on Mayo Clinic Campus after hospital discharge, time off work for his Wife Patricia, who will need to stay with him 24/7 in the event of rejection complications, house payments, gas groceries, utilities, anti rejection medicine, car payment, co-pays , pet care for Bear and Riley).

I am a Nurse and have been trying to work and take care of Joey as best as I can. We need your help to get Joey his liver transplant, post transplant care, and to get Joey back to living his life again.

Thank You for your prayers, love and support

Gratefully,
Patricia Walker, Joey’s wife of 15 years.
