Talia Kidney Transplant Medical Fund
Talia
Bennardo needs a little help. She's a sweet, typical 16 year old from Delray
Beach, Florida, whose life was turned on its head last April when she was
diagnosed with Focal Segmental Glumerulo Sclerosis (FSGS). The docs say
it is irreversible, so Talia needs a kidney transplant and lots of
prayers.
Her father,
Andy, is the chef/proprietor of Talia's Tuscan Table in Boca Raton, an Italian
buffet extraordinaire that has become a popular eatery staple that has provided
well for the family for over 10 years but the medical bills this family is
facing above and beyond insured procedures will be devastating unless friends
and neighbors do what has to be done; pitch in for our fellow citizens and
neighbors; it's the American way.
It is our
time to step up to the plate. I'm asking everyone I know or who reads my emails
and articles to please dig down and help out. Your contributions, however grand
or modest, can help Talia resume a normal life. Talia now endures 10 hours a
day of life saving Dialysis. As you can imagine that doesn't leave much time
for teenage activities or even normal family activities. This is a life
changing and life threatening disease but with your financial help and prayers
we'll get her a new kidney and pray that modern medical science can find a
formula to keep the new kidney healthy. Talia deserves that chance.
Please
forward this request to everyone you know. The medical bills, over and above
insured items, can amount to well over $100,000 dollars, more than most of us can
bear but if we all chip in it will happen soon.
On behalf of
the Bennardo family and me, thank you for your generosity and concern from the
bottom of our hearts. Will you please send this request to your email friends?
Also, if
anyone can help us identify a donor please contact me in strictest confidence. [email redacted] or 954-297-3119
