A Second Chance at Life for Jacob Wills

On Friday, August 30, 2024, a miracle happened. Jacob received a life-saving heart transplant. While this is an incredible gift, it comes with a profound sense of gratitude and sorrow. We are forever grateful to the generous donor and their family, whose selfless act has given Jacob a second chance at life.

The road to recovery after a heart transplant is long and challenging. Jacob and his family are facing significant medical expenses, including the cost of essential medications and ongoing care. With your support, we can help alleviate this financial burden and allow them to focus on healing and rebuilding their lives.

Jacob, a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend, has been battling severe heart problems for years. This condition has limited his ability to enjoy life's simple pleasures and spend quality time with loved ones. Your generosity can help Jacob and his family experience the joy and fulfillment they deserve.

Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Your contributions will directly support Jacob and his family, helping them cover medical expenses and navigate this difficult time. Please share this story with your friends and family to help spread the word. Let's come together to support Jacob and his family as they embark on this new chapter of their lives.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity.

Most people don't know this (thank God), but a heart transplant is about $1.2M and out of pocket cost run about $20K, if you have good insurance. There's another $30K in post hospitalization care, therapy and rehab. Not to mention, 31 different medications, doctors visits and other medical expenses. Being unable to work for the duration of this life-saving journey, also brings with it consternation about keeping up with mortgage payments, utilities and other daily expenses for at least 6 months. Your donations allow Jacob for focus on his recovery. Thank you for your support.
