Annie's Double Lung Transplant Campaign
Donation protected
Hello,
My name is Mariah Fredrickson and I created this GoFundMe account for my mom, Annette (Annie) Fredrickson. My mom currently resides in Billings, MT and I live in Missoula MT.
My mom is currently getting treated for severe lung disease including Sarcoidosis, severe hypoxia and pulmonary artery hypertension. She has had these diagnosis for well over five years . She is on oxygen 24/7. She is only 51 years old.
My mom's illness has progressed enough to the point where she is moving to The University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah - December 2019 to get a double lung transplant . My mom was accepted to University of Utah transplant program a couple months ago. As some of you may know, transplant patients are required to relocate to be within two hours of the transplant hospital before they can officially be on the list. So my mom and I moving to Salt Lake City this December to get her a new pair of lungs.
My mom raised me as a single parent, and I don't have any siblings. My mom is such an amazing mother, sister, friend, and person. She has worked so hard her whole life in order to take good care of me and her family. One example of my mom's strong work ethic and toughness is a couple years ago when she worked 3 ten hour days with A COLLASPED LUNG. My uncle says, "She's tough as nails." And it is true.
I am asking for donations to help cover various parts of my mom's journey. This includes: travel expenses for both of us to move to SLC, lodging, part of my mom's surgery, medication, and other basic needs.
Anyone who knows my mom knows that she has a great sense of humor. She is witty and is quick with her comebacks. She works so so hard. She will do anything for her family. She is very loved by many people.
Any donation, big or small, would be extremely helpful and very much appreciated. And I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
