Help a Father Awaiting Heart Transplant

Story

Help My Husband Fight for His Life My husband, a loving father of 3 and partner, has been battling acute congestive heart failure for the past 5 years. Recently, his condition took a drastic turn, and he was transferred to a hospital in Jacksonville, FL for specialized critical care. After emergency surgery, he's currently waiting for a heart transplant, But before he can become a candidate for heart transplant he has to have a device called a Lvad pump while he is waiting for a transplant. Which after the surgery will require for me to stay close to him for up to 3 months to learn how to properly care for his wounds. All of this is going to require for me to be away from home and my children for quite some time until he is well enough to go home. As his wife and proxy, I've taken on immense responsibilities - managing household bills, caring for our kids, and overseeing his medical care. With his condition worsening, I need your help to cover essential expenses like hotel stays, gas, and other costs associated with his treatment. A week ago, he faced a life-threatening crisis, slipping into respiratory failure due to fluid buildup in his lungs. I'm fighting alongside him, but I need your support. Every contribution will bring us closer to giving him a second chance at life. Your help can make a difference in our journey. Please support my husband's fight for the fight of his life. If you're unable to contribute financially, prayers are appreciated.
