Help Save My Dad: Seeking Kidney Donor

Hello, my name is Das, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help my dad, Joseph Michael Sawchak, who is battling end-stage renal failure due to Alport Syndrome. He’s on dialysis and urgently needs a kidney transplant. His blood type is O-, which adds an extra challenge in finding a compatible donor. We’ve set up this GoFundMe with a goal of $50,000 to support his medical expenses, travel, and other associated costs to ensure he receives the best possible care.

My dad is registered at Yale New Haven Hospital Transplant Center in New Haven, CT. If you or someone you know is interested in being a living donor, please contact the Yale Living Donor Line at (866-925-3897). Just mention that you’re calling on behalf of my dad, Joseph Michael Sawchak, and ask to speak with Jordan, his transplant coordinator. The hospital can provide full details about the donor process, including the support, reimbursement, and confidentiality options available.

Even if you can’t donate, sharing our story would mean the world to us. My dad is recently married, he loves life, and he’s loved deeply by his family. Thank you for considering any form of support to help save his life.
