Help Chase Harrison fight Stage 5 Kidney Disease

I am setting up this page to help my friend, Chase, raise enough money to relocate to Chattenooga, TN to continue his battle with Stage 5 kidney disease. It is our hope that he will have better access to specialized care, as well as be closer to his family for emotional support. He will be able to qualify for the kidney transplant list as well as have more connections to finding a living donor.

He relocated to Grand Junction 2 years ago, as this is the closest dialysis center. Unfortunately, undergoing dialysis 3 days per week has made it difficult for him to work and support himself. He has been unable to afford the costs associated with getting on the kidney transplant list, as this requires regular trips to Denver.

Chase lived in the Roaring Fork valley for over 30 years, working for the Town Of Snowmass Village as a bus driver, as a Physical Therapy tech at the Aspen Club, and giving his time to the Snowmass Fire Dept as a volunteer firefighter for many years. Chase was an avid outdoorsman and adventurer until a trip to Ecuador, where he contracted e-coli. He ended up in the hospital with multi-organ failure and, subsequent kidney disease and his life has been turned upside down.

Please, let's all give what we can to get this great guy a better chance at a transplant and a better quality of life. And, if you are not able to give financial support, please share this link with others and help us reach our goal. Money received will help him secure a place to live and provide living expenses for several months so he can focus on his medical needs.
