Hey Everyone, I’m in need of a lung transplant, please i need your help! ❤️ Honestly i have never been the person to ask for help but it has come to this. My name is Shania Arms & i am 23 years old. I was diagnosed with a terminal lung disease a month before i turned 1 years old back in 1999. I have the CF gene that affects my lungs and stomach. I have beat all odds that have been thrown at me my whole life! I have been told i wouldn’t live past certain ages and still survive, i just keep on FIGHTING. Giving all i got. I never let my health be an excuse for me trying or doing things in life. I have been told i wouldn’t be able to swim, run track or basically do sports growing up and I’ve done it all. I was a cheerleader since i was 6 years old and was on two cheer teams my high school years. 2014 i had a big set back i was on a ventilator for almost 3 weeks but i kept fighting, i woke up finally and was confused; i had to learn how to eat and walk, i lost so much weight it was like looking a real life skeleton from a science book. Guess what i kept FIGHTING & in 2 weeks. I was able to gain wait, eat & walk just fine all on my own and was discharged. Starting 2018/19 i started going to the hospital getting sicker and sicker every year. My body is finally tired! It’s 2022 and I’m in need of a lung transplant. My right lung is failing completely and my left lung is super weak. I am now on oxygen everywhere i go and a ventilator at night! I need your help to raise money for a transplant. To get on the list you have to complete almost 25-30 test and that’s basically test all organs and blood in your body. To get on the list i have to show that i have enough fundraised/ saved to not worry about post transplant medication which i was given a summery of $18,000 per month for 3 months and around $1800 per month for the rest of my life / bills while I’m undergoing surgery and recovery/ room and board for staying close the hospital post transplant in case of complications and any fees generated that insurance won’t cover or pick up. I am doing all i can I’m Going to the doctors, I’m saving money everywhere i can, I’m doing the test, I’ve got the support mentally and my family is doing all the can. Im fighting but i can’t lose the chance of survival due to FINANCES. I need your help! Anything can help and anything can make difference it don’t matter if it’s a penny, a dollar or more. Anything helps. God has made a way for 23 years and i have no doubt that he is going to make a way again. Your generosity and support is greatly appreciated❤️
