Help Charley and Denise breathe easy
Donation protected
Now this is a story all about how their lives got twisted and turned upside down, give me just a minute, sit right there, let me tell you the story all about how Charley is getting a pair.....of lungs. December 5th, Charley went to the ER and Denise went home to scrub her floors. Little did anyone know that that day would lead to the scariest 4th months of their lives together. Nothing in the 43 years of marriage would have lead to thoughts of the trails and tribulations they have been through.
Charley was flown to Billings hospital on Dec 24th, 2020. Christmas Day, he was placed on the ventilator for 2 weeks. Since waking up on Jodie's birthday, he has faced almost every complication he could. His wonderful staff decided in March that it was time to move onto the next step and put him up for consideration for a double lung transplant.
Charley and Denise got flown down to Phoenix on Monday April,5th and immediately started testing to be considered for the double transplant. As of today, April 9th, he has been accepted for the transplant!
While we are all overwhelmed with the news and gratitude, this also means that mom and dad need to move to Phoenix for the next 6-8 months. This is a move that going to cause quite a few expenses on top of caring for Charley. We want to make sure they have a safe, close, clean place to live while Charley is on the road to recovery.
Our entire family thanks you for all your love, support and prayers through this whole process and cannot tell all of you enough how much it means to us.
