Help Dave Breathe Easier: Fighting Sarcoidosis

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and kind strangers, 

We are reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for your help for David, who is battling sarcoidosis of the lungs. This rare and debilitating disease has turned our lives upside down, and we’re struggling to keep our family afloat. 

Your support, no matter how small, will make a tremendous difference in helping us cover our basic needs during this challenging time. 

 Dave has always been the rock of our family, working tirelessly to provide for us with strength and love. But sarcoidosis, a condition that causes painful inflammation in his lungs, has made it nearly impossible for him to work. He struggles with shortness of breath, chronic fatigue, and chest pain, which prevent him from performing the physically demanding jobs he once relied on. Doctors’ appointments, medications, and the uncertainty of his condition have taken a toll on his ability to earn a steady income, leaving us in a precarious financial situation. 

 On top of Dave’s health challenges, we’ve been hit with one hardship after another. Our car, which we depend on for medical appointments and errands, keeps breaking down, and repair costs are piling up. We’re behind on rent, with bills and credit card debt mounting faster than we can manage. Even putting food on the table has become a daily struggle, and it breaks my heart to see Dave worry about providing for our family while he fights to breathe. 

 Every dollar raised through this GoFundMe will go directly to our family’s necessities: rent to keep a roof over our heads, groceries to ensure we have food, car repairs to get Dave to his medical appointments, and paying down overdue bills and credit card debt to ease the financial burden. Your generosity will give us the breathing room we desperately need to focus on Dave’s health and keep our family together. 

 We are incredibly grateful for any support you can offer—whether it’s a donation, sharing our story with others, or keeping us in your thoughts. Your kindness will help lift the weight of these challenges and remind us that we’re not alone in this fight. With your help, David can access life-changing treatment and focus on healing.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with us during this difficult time. 

 With love and gratitude, Heather & Dave
