Hope for Amy: A Second Chance to Breathe

Donation protected
Amy has spent her entire life taking care of others—from her mom to her family, friends, and every team she has ever been part of. If you know Amy, you know she puts everyone else first. Even now, her greatest concern is making sure everyone else is okay. Now, it’s our turn to take care of Amy.

Amy spent many years both in banking and in the service industry in the Albuquerque area. Wherever she worked, Amy became a trusted mentor, caregiver, and friend.

Family has always come first for Amy. She lovingly cares for her mom, is a mother to Bryanna, and a daily caregiver to Connor—always putting their needs before her own. She is also best friend and wife to Paul.

Beyond her family, Amy has always taken care of her friends—checking in, offering help, and being the person everyone turns to. Even as she faces serious health challenges, Amy still worries about how everyone else is doing.

Why Amy Needs Our Help

Amy is preparing to undergo a double lung transplant in Phoenix. This is a high-risk, life-saving surgery that requires extended medical care, housing near the hospital, and significant time away from her family. Amy and Tracy, her dear friend and caregiver, will be away from home for months and the recovery time is going to extremely lengthy.

The financial burden includes:

Medical bills
Temporary housing during treatment
Travel and living expenses
Recovery and follow-up care
Massive amounts of prescriptions that she will need for her lifetime

How You Can Help

Amy has never asked for help—but today, we are asking on her behalf. Any donation, no matter the amount, will help ease the financial stress on Amy and her family so she can focus on healing and beginning a new breath at life.
