Nathaniel Redd

Nathaniel Redd is a vibrant, cheerful 2-year-old boy from Tulsa (better known to his family as “Bubba”). Bubba struggles with a urea cycle disorder called Argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. Due to this condition, his body doesn’t remove ammonia as it should, which has made him very sick for most of his life. At this point, Bubba is in desperate need of a liver transplant to ensure that he lives a long, healthy, happy, and energetic life.

Along with this debilitating disease have come several challenges for us. Bubba has had numerous life flights, hospital visits, and it has slowed his learning development. Being in and out of the hospital, he has also missed out on a lot of time with our family. A liver transplant will be life-changing for Bubba and will allow him to have a normal childhood. We are looking forward to a happy and healthy life for him post-transplant.

Transplants are life-saving, but very expensive. Even with insurance, we are still facing many out-of-pocket costs and financial burdens, including travel and relocation for the transplant, co-pays, and medications. The travel to OU medical center alone will be upwards of $2500. All of this presents a challenge we cannot meet without your help.

A fundraising campaign in Nathaniel’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live. To make a tax-deductible donation, click Donate Now.

Thank you for your prayers, support and generosity. Keep an eye on Nathaniel’s page because we will be planning fundraising events and posting updates regularly.

Sincerely,

The Parents of Nathaniel Redd
