KidneyPancreas Transplant Waiting PostOp Care
Donation protected
I initially started this to raise money to pay off my car and have money for gas to and from transplant whenever that may be. Unfortunately the car died and I have had to replace it which means another bill. I am currently struggling, a lot, and I hate having to ask for help for myself. Something God is telling me I need to get better at. I've always been on the donating side of these rather than the recipient side.
The bills honestly exceed my income. Social Security is not even half of what I was making and having a teenager makes it tough. I hate that I have to say "no" so often but she's a great kid and she's trying everything to help me. I am currently trying to raise the money to cover a month of expenses and extra gas for whenever transplant happens. I'm praying that it soon. The doctor said a "few months" when I spoke to him back in late June to get listed for dual kidney and pancreas transplant. I have totaled up all of the bills, rent, car, insurance, electric, water, food and gas (extra for travel from Sherman to Dallas) and that total comes to $3171 (leaving extra for fluctuations in the electric and gas prices). I am adjusting the total for my fundraiser. It may not seem like a large amount but that's what it is. I know God is my provider and He will make provision, in His way, in His time.
I don't have a date that transplant is going to happen just yet, but I want to have the funds available. I am so grateful to everyone and if you know me you know how hard it is for me to ask for help. So, thank you for considering any donation.
