Jeremiah's Medical Fund

Donation protected
In August of 2013, my wife and I found out that our son, Jeremiah, has a rare recessive disorder called Fanconi's anemia. People with Fanconi's eventually go into bone marrow failure.  Some people may have bone deformities, missing organs, and low blood platelet counts. Fortunately, Jeremiah does not have any bone deformities or missing organs. However, he does have low platelet counts. Due to his low platelet counts, he is now needing a bone marrow transplant.
         There are only a few hosptials in the United States that will perform bone marrow transplants on patients with Fanconi's anemia. Jeremiah's transplant will take place at  at the University of Minnesota Masonic Childrens Hospital in Minnesota, Minneapolisday on September 3, 2015. After his transplant, Jeremiah will have to be in the hospital for 35 day. After discharge, he will need to stay within 30 minutes from the hospital for another 60 to 90 days.  At this time, my wife and I are asking for support to help us fund Jeremiah back to recovery.
