Hello,

Today I'm reaching out to everyone about a Husband, Father, and Coworker( Republic Airways mechanic PIT)  who has been living life since his first liver transplant when he was only 3 years old. Since then he has spent his life on medication and special diets to keep him healthy and alive. Things have been changing rapidly for him over the past year and recently taken a southern turn. Robert has been employed at Republic Airways for his whole aviation career and has been a solid coworker, employee and friend. With a loving wife, 2 kids and his wife expecting his 3rd. Timing could not have been worse for them. With medical bills, loss wages and healing needed in the unforeseen future I ask you please consider even the smallest donation to their family.

This is a message from his wife.

Bobby is currently is being treated at University Hospital in Cleveland. He got pneumonia which caused his liver disease to progress into final stage liver failure. What we originally thought was going to he 2 to 3 years from now has progressed in just 10 short days.

As of this morning Transplant spoke with us and determined they will be escalating him to top priority and we can hope to receive a Transplant within the next few weeks. There are alot of factors that play in to how quickly we can get him a donor organ. He is being treated for the pneumonia and being tested for underlying infections and bile blockages. They are concerned about how jaundice he is but say with his liver at the stage it is and the pneumonia it could be the cause, in order to proceed with Transplant he needs to be cleared of any infections or blockage.

Please keep him in your thoughts, prayers, and send good wishes. Also please pray for the family that will be experiencing loss of their loved one as we pray we will soon celebrate the life saved of our loved one.

I will keep everyone updated as much as possible. We have a long road ahead of us and his health and care will be top priority as the next few weeks and months progress.

Thank You all for your thoughts and consideration in this difficult time.
