I need a liver and a kidney

Friday, October 27, 2023

Hi my name is Marcia (Duncan) Gross. I have cirrhosis of the liver which is no longer working and my kidneys have also shut down requiring dialysis 3 times a week for 4 hours.

My husband, Jeremy, has been a saint through all of this, but he's only one person. I have a 21 year old daughter, Jill, who is about to graduate from college in May 2024. She is in Chicago and we are in Phoenix.

I had a job, that I loved, but I have been suffering hepatic encephalopathy so I can' t work. They say they will take me back when I can function. I was the financial controller in charge of the accounting department. I have applied for disability but told it would be 6 months until I receive anything. I'm not eligible for workmen's compensation. I have no other source of income. I can't even get a job at Walmart. We have used up ALL our savings and it's gone. Now we have moved to credit cards. It's madness.

The money will be used to pay medical bills, mortgage, insurance, food and pretty much everything my husband's check doesn't cover. Please anyone from high school, college, former jobs, anyone that knows me please help me. I need the money to pay until I can get a new kidney and a new liver. It is my understanding this will fix a lot of issues I am having and that after healing I can go back to work.
