Dear Friends, Family, and Everyone,
We are setting up this page to help our cousin, Rudranath (Rudy) Balram in Queens, New York during a medical emergency. Rudy is in desperate need of a kidney - his kidneys are small and have outlasted their functional capacity. If you know someone healthy enough to consider being a donor, please contact Kim, his wife, or leave a message here.
Rudy underwent emergency surgery on Aug 1and is still in the hospital. He has been sick for months now due to his kidneys malfunctioning and have been unable to work. Due to the surgery and his need for a kidney, he will be unable to work for months to come also. As a result, we have started a fundraiser to help his young family during this crisis. The money will be used to help with childcare (he has a young son), medical expenses, and general household expenses. No amount is too small -every little bit helps. Thank you very much in advance for your generosity.
For those of you who know Rudy, know that he is generous, and always smiling, and helpful. We'd like to help him as much as possible as he fights this battle.
Please note that GoFundMe guarantees "funds raised go to the victims and their families."
Sincere Thanks,
Rudy Cousins
