Financial Support for Erin Stadler's Recovery

A few months ago Erin was diagnosed with end stage liver failure. The end of one's life is inevitable for all of us, but no one expects it to be only four years into a marriage with the love of your life, before your nephews graduate high school, and at such a young age right when life was at its happiest.

 

She had been receiving care between Homer and Anchorage, and had been given the OK by her doctors to travel back East to see friends and family and that is when things got worse. She was taken to a major hospital and was told her situation was a lot more dire than she had initially thought. After returning to Homer her health steadily declined, and Erin was life-flighted to Anchorage. In Anchorage, she was finally able to see a specialist. This specialist recommended Erin to the Swedish Medical Center in Seattle, Washington where she was flown to days later. Monday Erin was accepted into the transplant program and added to the transplant list the following day. Today we received the fantastic news that she is at the top of the list and there is a donor in the area.

 

After the transplant, Erin will be in recovery for up to 2 weeks at the hospital and will have to remain in Seattle for a few months. Cody will be traveling between Homer and Seattle as much as financially feasible.

 

Anyone that knows Erin knows how gracious, loving, kind, and truly selfless she is. With being gifted with something as big as another chance at life, there is no way she would want to ask for anything more, so that is why we, as her friends and family are. Erin has a long road ahead of her and isn't quite out of the woods yet. Throughout these months she has been unable to work and Cody has also needed to take a large amount of time off. Medical bills, flights, lodging, and day-to-day bills will inevitably pile up. Although both Cody and Erin are not ones to ask for help, they are usually the first ones to give theirs. The purpose of this "ask for help" is to ease troubled minds and support Erin during this scary time.

 

Anything you can give is appreciated, funds will be directly deposited into Cody & Erin's joint account.
