Alan Miller Kidney Transplant
Donation protected
Alan Miller is a man of faith, devoted and loving father, husband, son, and grandson, now experiencing the fight of his life. He has recently been diagnosed with Stage 5 Renal Failure and is currently in need of dialysis and a kidney transplant.
Alan is a passionate professional photographer who loves documenting people in love by specializing in wedding and family photography. Alan has home-schooled his son, Liam, for eight years while running his business, and supports his wife as she cares for him, their household, and continues to pursue her degree in nursing on a now cut-back schedule. Alan continues to fight to ensure the best life he can provide for his wife and son during these hard times.
Recently, Alan began to feel far more fatigued and weaker than usual. Many additional symptoms and signs of a problem began to become apparent. Following an annual lab and check-up, on March 31st, Alan and his wife, Lane, received the news he was in a final fight against kidney failure. (End Stage Renal Failure)
Alan was immediately forced to stop working. He was given no option but to cancel all 2014 remaining reservations, and sell some of his business assets to refund reservations and begin paying for associated medical expenses. Additionally, with recent changes in insurance, insurance costs now tripled to over $700 per month for Alan’s insurance coverage alone. There are many additional expenses such as medications, co-pays, travel, and more causing duress for the Millers. Post-transplant medications will typically range into four figures per month for possibly the rest of Alan’s life.
These financial hard times have become extremely stressful on Alan, Lane, Liam and his family. With God’s gracious will, Alan prays to be able to fight through this and return to the work he loves in the future. As many know, the disease typically calls for dialysis, followed by the ultimate goal of a kidney transplant. Alan’s family has transferred records to Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, and after six weeks, has finally gotten the appropriate initial appointments scheduled to begin his long fight.
As one may guess, costs are outrageously expensive and Alan and his family are no longer in a position to afford them due to the loss of Alan’s work and business. This page has been set up to help them through this transition, and to help sustain their home and hardship medical and living expenses. Any funds lovingly donated will be used for the above mentioned expenses while Alan fights through dialysis and a transplant.
If you would like to view Alan’s photography (he cannot accept work), his imagery can be viewed at alanmillerphotography.com.
