<div>[UPDATE 3/23/2026: Hi, this is Matthew-- Lyrik's boyfriend/caregiver. I've been helping run this fundraiser, and I'm including this section to clarify some stuff and make sure we abide by gofundme's TOS.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As of today, Lyrik has been diagnosed with right-sided heart failure, in addition to their left-side heart failure, and has been given a prognosis of only <em>1 year</em> left to live. The plan is still to use whatever donations you give us to fund our permanent move from Arizona to California so that Lyrik can be evaluated by a hospital (one that's willing to accept Lyrik's very complex case) and potentially be put on a heart-lung transplant list.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If Lyrik is put on a transplant list, the remaining donations will help cover our basic living expenses for about one year  (food, rent, transportation, etc.) and potential medical fees.
</div>
<div>If the hospital in CA doesn't accept them, we will use whatever funds we have left to look for a different transplant clinic and move there--even if we have to go across the whole country. 
</div>
<div>The support you've been giving us so far has been just utterly unimaginable. Thanks to you guys, Lyrik might actually have a chance at living. We will keep you updated on any changes to our plans that come up, and on Lyrik's condition.
</div>
<div>-- Matthew]
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hello, this is Lyrik here. I am 20 going on 21. I like painting though I suck at it. I love writing and am quite good at it. I am autistic. I love pitbulls and the color pink and I miss the smell of tamales in the morning on a weekend during christmas. I am all that and so much more. And I want to continue being that and to continue to grow. But there's something in my way. And that is my heart failure and weak lungs. I need a heart transplant and a double lung transplant to survive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Even before I was born I had medical issues. I was born with a cancerous tumor in my right kidney but somehow no one caught it until two year old me started peeing blood. Took a while and a couple hospitals but they figured out what was wrong. I had stage 4 diffuse anaplastic wilmstumor and it was acting quick. I barely survived but I did. I was cancer free.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Not without consequences though.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Over the past almost two decades ive been spending too much time in the cold indoors at the hospital and not enough time outside enjoying the sun blessing me with her warmth. I was robbed of my childhood and teenage years because of this and so much more. I don't want my life altogether to be taken. It's not my time yet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have to get those transplants to live any sort of life. And I want to. No hospital in my state will take me because I'm too complex of a patient due to being a heart and lung patient, my stature (4’8, 142 cm), and my LVAD(left ventricular assist device).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My next best bet is California. The hospital I've spoken to said that they're willing to do the evaluation but to even get to that step I have to move states. Which is very costly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So I'm asking for help. My goal is $50k and I hope that'll be enough. The reasons for that high of a goal:
</div>
<div>Getting a decent car (nothing fancy but will last a couple years at least)
</div>
<div>Gas to get there
</div>
<div>Moving trucks and to help pay moving workers to help me
</div>
<div>Medical supplies
</div>
<div>Money to cover meds in case there's a small lapse of insurance when I switch
</div>
<div>Food
</div>
<div>Hygiene
</div>
<div>Cleaning out the old place
</div>
<div>The deposit of the new apartment
</div>
<div>The rent of the new apartment
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That's all just to GET there and set up. Also, the evaluation process can be lengthy so I would have to be there a while. Then if they decide to put me on the transplant list who knows how long that'll take. So the $50k is just to get me settled and to give my boyfriend enough time to get a job to support us alongside my disability payment ( which doesn't even cover rent here in my home state).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Of course, you don't have to donate. But if you have it in you to help someone in need please do even if it's not me. Have a wonderful day.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>~With love, Lyrik
