Marko Jeter

Family and friends of Marko Jeter are raising money to pay for uninsured medical expenses associated with his heart transplantation.

Marko has chosen to fundraise with Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility to the full extent allowed by law for donors. Donors can be sure that funds donated will be used only to pay or reimburse medically-related expenses.

2016-17 has been challenging for Marko, from his double bypass in February 2016 (on his birthday!) which lead up to months in the hospital (two different hospitals!) with final discharge on July 6th as an LVAD to transplant patient with Stanford Hospital and Clinics. The following Spring Marko was formally listed on the transplant list on May 21st and his amazing gift was placed on July 15th.

The first 90 days post placement will be the most difficult and the first year we’ve been told can be challenging. Stanford has a high success rate as they do monitor their transplant patients very frequently and closely. The transplant surgery could not have gone better with a hospital discharge only 13 days later.

Only with the help from our “village” on Allendale Ave in Maxwell Park, the love, positive energy and prayers from family and friends could we make this a journey a success. Gemma and Gypsy are doing their job as well!
