Kidney Transplant for Pahoua Moua
Donation protected
Our mother, Pahoua Lor Moua, needs a lifesaving kidney transplant and she needs the support of her community to make it happen.
Pahoua is married to Pastor Daniel D. Moua. Daniel and Pahoua have been married since January of 1988 and were blessed with 10 children (5 boys and 5 girls) ranging from the ages of 32 to 14, 3 son-in-laws, and 3 grandchildren. Our parents have been serving God since they have been married, ministering to the congregations of Lao Evangelical Church in Santa Ana, California, the Hmong Christian Reformed Church in Lansing, Michigan, and currently the Fresno Hmong Community Reformed Church in Fresno, California. Pahoua worked for the Fresno Bee from 1995 until 2007. In 2004 our parents started an Asian Broadcasting Radio KQEQ 1210/KGED 1680, a twenty-four hour Hmong Radio, which they had to close in 2012 due to Pahoua's health issue. Pahoua and Daniel also had multiple business helping the Hmong community such as DDM Income Tax Services and Moua Insurance Agency and Financial Services.
In 2009, our mom was frequently sick and doctors could not figure out what was wrong with her. It took several years for them to diagnose her with Chronic Renal Disease. In April of 2012, doctors gave her a few months to live if she did not start dialysis; our parents decided to shut down all their business to take care of our mom. Pahoua has been on peritoneal dialysis since August 2012 and is on the transplant list. Her condition has since declined to End Stage Renal Failure. End stage Renal Failure leads to complications and in November of 2020, Pahoua was hospitalized for 7 weeks due to having a major heart attack. After 6 week stay in the hospital she had a triple by pass surgery for her heart.
We are preparing for the financial aspect of transplant.
Even with insurance there are many out-of-pocket expenses including co-pays, deductibles, and temporary housing expenses to live close to the hospital for several weeks to months post-transplant, and the costly immunosuppressant medications that Pahoua will need to take for the rest of her life.
Pahoua is currently on the waiting list for a kidney transplant in San Francisco and San Diego, however the waiting list is very long. She is now on the waiting list for Rochester, Minnesota, which is a shorter wait time. Donations will go towards medical supplies, traveling and housing expense (depending on where she gets called to first).
Her blood type is O positive. A kidney donner will be greatly appreciated if possible.
Thank you in advance for your support, generosity, and prayers.
Gratefully,
The family of Pahoua Moua
