Donate To Help Fund Michelle’s Kidney Transplant

Michelle has been fighting kidney disease her entire life. Her nephrologist feels the only way for her to have any quality of life is to receive a kidney transplant and she is currently on the transplant list and waiting for her perfect match! Any donation will go directly to helping this single mom of two. Please read below for her full story:

Michelle was born with her conditions: Renal Agenesis is when a baby is born with only one kidney and Vesicoureteral Reflux is an abnormal flow of urine from the bladder back into the ureters (the tubes that connect to your kidneys). Her one kidney is only functioning at 17% and her Dr. has said that this transplant is their last ditch effort to keep her alive. Michelle is a single mom of two young boys, Braylen(10) and Asher (9), who are her whole world and she has been putting on a brave face for them. Though she works full time as a mail carrier and another part time job as a secretary for a moving/storage company, Michelle does not have the money that the hospital is requiring from her up front. She must meet her $5,000 deductible prior to the transplant and then, after she is required to stay at a designated hotel within a few miles of the hospital that they have quoted to her to be $250 per night for 16 nights following her surgery. Michelle will also have no income during her required 6-8weeks out of work following her transplant. Any donations over our $10,000 goal will help Michelle pay for her transportation, dr visits, monthly bills, and etc.

Michelle truly has the biggest heart out of anyone I know and has rock solid faith that God is going to get her through this physically, spiritually and financially. I have seen her at her lowest and she would still give you the shirt off her back. We would love to be able to surprise her with this money and take away the financial burden that she is faced with. Please keep her and her boys in your prayers as she faces her hardest battle yet. God bless you!
