Chanda (Junkins) Spragg's Life-Saving Liver Transplant Fund

Donation protected
My name is Randall "Randy" Junkins. Many folks may know me from my pumpkin farm in Mt. Storm, WV, called Cherry Brook Farm, or you may have crossed paths with me as a pharmacist in Petersburg, WV. Those of you who know me, know that my family means everything - Please read this post as I request any and all help for my dear cousin, Chanda Spragg.

Chanda (Junkins) Spragg is a 1996 graduate of Union High School in Mt. Storm, WV, and a 2001 Graduate of Fairmont State College, with a bachelor's degree in health science. She has served several professional roles from nursing home administrator to teacher. She is married to Roger Spragg, who was a police officer for several years before being elected to serve as magistrate of Wetzel County, WV. They have 2 sons, Jasup and Colsen, both of whom are enrolled in college at Fairmont State University and are both members of the college wrestling team. Chanda and Roger reside in Paden City, WV.

Chanda was diagnosed with an autoimmune liver disease roughly 8 years ago. To this point, she has been able to manage the disease fairly well with medications and doctor interventions. Over the course of the last 8 years, her body has continually attacked her liver to the point that she now has only 1 option left to live - a liver transplant. Recently, she has spent several extended periods in the ICU at Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown. Thankfully, she has been approved for a liver transplant once they find a compatible living donor, or once a compatible organ donor unfortunately passes away. Chanda is fighting so very hard for the opportunity to fulfill every mother's dream of providing for her family, and most importantly, to continue to watch her children grow up to be adults - but she needs OUR help now!

Her insurance copays for September 2025 alone were $13,000, and she has had several procedures and stays in Ruby Memorial since September. Unfortunately, she has been unable to work for quite a while now due to major complications from her condition. She will also need extended hotel stays in Pittsburgh while she gets prepped for her transplant, and for some time after the procedure once that time comes.

We are greatest when we come together for a noble cause. I can assure you this - nobody is more deserving, nobody will be more gracious, and nobody is more humbled by the fact that she is even in a position to need help from others.

To know Chanda, is to love Chanda - and we are hoping and praying that she can get back on her feet after her transplant.
