Anthony's Lung Transplant

Anthony Barringer was born in 1991 with Cystic Fibrosis.  For those of you that might not know exactly what that is; Cystic Fibrosis is an inherited, life-threatening disorder, that damages the lungs and digestive system. 
     He has lead a "semi-normal" life using medicine and breathing treatments up until the last few years.  As you can see in the profile picture, Anthony WAS doing great.  Then he got sick and was hospitalized. 
     Since then his lungs have been deteriorating.  Now, he is about half the weight that you see in the picture and is currently on full-time oxygen and medications waiting on the lung transplant list. 
     As you can probably imagine his medical bills have been piling up, and in his current state, he can barely walk around let alone try to work to pay his bills.  Also, since he is now 26 he falls outside of the legal limit for being on his parents insurance.(currently working the issue)  He has also been working on getting disability, but that is seeming to take forever with no end in sight!
     Writing this page is his parents.  Anthony doesn't know about this page(yet) because he isn't the type of person to ask for help even when he desperately needs it.  Obviously we are paying for as much as possible, but with healthcare rising beyond managable amounts, its just impossible to keep up or to even come close!

     Please keep Anthony in your hearts and prayers.

Thank you,
Anthony's Family
