Hi everyone! We are raising funds to help our dear friend Chad with his medical and living expenses while waiting for a kidney transplant. Unfortunately, Chad is fighting hereditary renal failure and is currently undergoing dialysis 12 hours per day to get by while waiting for a donor. This has caused a very difficult financial position for him as his short-term disability has since expired while going through his first surgery and recovery. Chad has been such a great friend to all of us, willing to help anyone in need and always taking care of his patients, animals, family, and friends alike. Although most of us won’t qualify to donate a kidney (though if you’re interested in testing to see if you’re a match, please let him know!!) we can certainly help make this very difficult time a little easier by helping to cover everyday expenses as well as mounting medical bills. Chad can’t wait to get back to work full time but until he has a transplant and 12 weeks of recovery, it’s just not an option. Thank you everyone for all of your help and prayers for a transplant and uncomplicated recovery!-
