James Jim Teltschik
“The disease will keep trying to pull you in, but you just have to keep fighting it.”
62-year-old pharmacist James Teltschik is fighting COVID-19 and awaiting a life-altering double lung transplant. Once transplanted, he will become the twelfth person in the U.S. to receive a double lung transplant due to COVID-19.
Transplant-related medical costs may top $1 million with many expenses not covered by insurance. James and his family are fundraising with the nonprofit Help Hope Live for associated costs.
