Lung Transplant

#BreathingForRoss
Ross Echols, our nephew, has recently received the news that he will need a double lung transplant. Because of the severity of his condition Ross has been placed on oxygen 24 hours a day which has left him unable to work until after a successful  transplant and recovery. When Ross was a baby he was in and out of multiple hospitals, locally as well as in the Atlanta area. The diagnosis was interstitial lung disease, which is a disorder that causes scarring of the lungs. This lung disease has caused Pulmonary Hypertension which is the reason for the double lung transplant. Ross is currently in the process of being placed on the lung transplant list. Ross, his mother Joy Echols, his father Frank Echols, brothers Greer and Jacob Echols, girlfriend Kasey Barnes and other close relatives have been traveling to Atlanta for pre-transplant appointments, multiple tests, and treatments. Ross and Joy are required by the physicians to relocate to the Atlanta area for the year-long double lung transplant surgery and recovery. Your donation will help off-set surgical costs, medical bills, and living expenses related to Ross' life-changing procedure. Ross and his family are thankful for any donation you are able to provide. Please also keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
