My name is Tina McCoy, and in February 2025, I was diagnosed with stage 5 end-stage renal kidney failure. I had to start emergency dialysis and need a transplant in order to live. I am 54 years old, and my income is limited to social security disability alone. The cost of gas expenses to and from dialysis, 3 times a week at 30 miles away, has caused me to miss treatments, which leads to more hospitalizations and the expense of medications not covered by insurance.

I also have to travel to Houston, TX, for my third surgery, so any help you can give is a blessing and a chance for me to be with my kids and grandkids. Thank you and God bless.
