Medical Expenses for Michelle

Anyone that knows Michelle, or comes in contact with her, will agree with me that she is one of the most amazing people you will ever meet.  Her radiant smile lights up the room and her laugh and silly jokes will make your day instantly change from bad to good.  She is truly a wonderful person and is always giving to help others.  Now, I am asking for your help for her.

Michelle has pulmonary hypertension or PH.  According to wikipedia it is defined as "an increase of blood pressure in the pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, or pulmonary capillaries, together known as the lung vasculature, leading to shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, leg swelling and other symptoms."  In other words, Michelle struggles to breathe with every breath she takes.  Despite dealing with this debilitating disease daily for many, many years, Michelle's love of life shines through and you'd never know she's fighting such a battle.

Because of this disease, Michelle needs a double lung and a heart transplant.  Not one or the other, BOTH.  As I'm sure you can imagine, medical costs for these procedures is extremely high and any help and assistance we can get for her would be helpful.  Please look into your heart and give knowing that you will be contributing to lengthening the life of one simply amazing, beautiful, caring, loved beyond measure, daughter, grand-daughter, sister, aunt, best friend and uplifter to so many people.
