Help Aldo Breathe Again
Lung Transplant Recovery Support

Dear Friends , Family, and Kind Hearted Supporters,

I am reaching out on behalf of a family member, Aldo Futia, who has just faced the biggest challenge of his life - a life saving Lung Transplant.

After a long battle with Pulmonary Fibrosis, Aldo was finally approved for a transplant. This is a miracle we've prayed for, but it comes with overwhelming financial burdens that our family cannot manage alone.

After bravely fighting through the lung transplant, Aldo now faces the next big step — relocating for specialized recovery care (routine bloodwork and scans requiring constant monitoring and close proximity to specialists).

Additionally, as Aldo continues recovering, the road ahead remains steep. One essential pill alone costs over $1,100 each month — and it’s not covered by insurance. These aren’t optional; they’re vital to keeping Aldo’s new lungs healthy and preventing rejection. Your support helps lift the overwhelming financial weight of recovery, allowing Aldo to focus on healing, breathing, and living fully again. Every contribution makes a real difference — thank you for helping make this second chance at life possible.

Your support will help ease the burden of this transition, providing stability, comfort, and hope during healing. Every donation, big or small, brings Aldo closer to breathing easier and rebuilding life after transplant. Thank you for standing beside him on this journey.

Your support will go directly toward Aldo for the following :
  • Co-pays and out of pocket medical expenses
  • Life sustaining medications (many of which are not covered by insurance)
  • Temporary housing housing in New York City
  • Transportation to and from medical appointments

Your kindness not only eases financial strain — it reminds Aldo they’re not alone or hopeless on this journey. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this page — it truly helps spread the word.
