HELP LARRY BREATHE HE NEEDS DOUBLE LUNG TRANSPLANT

This fundraiser is done by Ming Willis on the behalf of my Husband Larry. First I
would like to explain Larry's condition. He has Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Which is hardening of the Lungs and there is no cure. The Doctors say that
science has not yet figured out what causes this disease. The prognosis is 3-5
years depending on what stage it is at when diagnosed. Larry was diagnosed
October 2019 unfortunately it was in the latter stages. He tried the only two
medicines that they have for slowing down the progression of the fibrosis but it
didn't work so now Larry's left lung is operating at 30% and his right lung is at
60%  in order for him to live he will need a double Lung Transplant. He will be
getting his transplant at Ochsner's Multi Organ Transplant Center. In order for
him to stay on the list he has to be able to afford all the medication after the transplant which will be several thousand per month. So we are asking for your help
with monetary donations as well as prayer, love and positive vibes. I pray you
please read to the end to get the story of who Larry Willis is: I would like to tell
the story of who Larry Willis is from the perspective of those who love and know him best: First let me start off by saying Larry is the love of my life, my soul mate
of 12 years. He is an awesome Husband and Father to our 6 Year old
Daughter he his her Hero and she is his world. There is nothing he wouldn't do to
make sure his Wife and Daughter are taking care of he was my hero and my rock when I battled Breast Cancer 2017 he and our Daughter gave me the will to fight and survive . It is one of the hardest things to go through to watch your husband
battle to breath and know all you can do is pray and ask God to help him hold on
for new lungs. He has never met a stranger, he would give his last to help his
fellow man in need. There have been so many times he has come home and
gathered clothes, shoes, and food to give to those who he knew needed it he done those things not wanting recognition or anything in return. No matter how his
body may be feeling he would still go and help when asked. he is an Usher at our
Church. He is a mentor to so many. His joy and smile is infectious,  I could write a
book on Larry Willis my Husband but I also want to put in here the words of other Family and Friends on who Larry is: From MARY his Mom "There has never been, nor will there ever be anything quite so special as the love between a mother and son. My Son is one of my greatest accomplishments in life. He brings me
unspeakable joy and purpose to my life. To have a sick child regardless of the age
is a mother's worse nightmare. My prayers will continue to flow out and above for the healing of my Son."
From TASHA his cousin: "Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we
here we should Dance. We could only hope and pray Larry is continued to allow
to dance."
From Justin Larry's God Brother" I met Larry Willis over  19 years ago I was only 11 years old. My Mom and My Dad divorced and I was heading  down the wrong
road, our Pastor told my Mom about Larry "Speedo" Willis he told her to take me
to see him because he would do everything he could to help her get me back on
the right track. He did exactly as the Pastor said. He was very stern with me but
always in a loving way. He took me under his wing, taught me how to be a good
honest man and he has always been there for me. At 14 i had to have a spinal
decompression surgery and almost died. I Truely feel if Speedo had not been there for me I would not have made it through. He prayed for me continually as i am
praying for him. He is more than a brother to me We talk all the time and no
matter what is going on in his life he is there for me . he will drop everything if I
needed him. Today i am now 30 and can honestly say i would not know what to do without him in my life. He is my Brother, my Mentor and my heart!"
From Sharon who is like a Mom to Larry" Larry Willis is an Angel sent straight from God directly to me. I met him over 19 years ago. In my heart I know my sons would not be the men they have become today without him. I don't think he realizes just how much he helped me through life with these 2 boys. If it had not been for Larry, I would have given up on life years ago , but he was always there when i needed to talk or when i needed anything for my boys. Larry is the reason i kept trying to survive, he taught me to never give up and always put my faith and trust in
God.  When i felt my road had ended Larry was there to show me the path to get back to the road. He means the world to me! He calls me Mom and I consider him
my Son. He has a heart of gold and will do anything he can to help anyone even if  he doesn't know them. I know in my heart God will get him through this very rough time. Larry puts his Faith and trust in God. He is strong, loving, hard working
man that loves his family and friends.
" From Tyler Larry's God Brother," Picture it Wiggins between 2002 0r
2003 when Larry Willis walked into my life and changed it forever! He is a good
Man to my family he is there when you need a ear to talk to. Someone who tells
you the truth even though it will be hard to hear he's there when you need a warm shoulder to cry on he is good with kids and he is good with punishment...LOL and make sure their homework is done. He is the bestfriend that my family can ask for a man who has good taste in music he is my biggest inspiration to work hard and
to never give up he is my rock he is my friend he is my Brother.

Brother and Friend to any and all he comes in contact with, Larry (Son) have been through many trials and tribulations he also goes out of his way to do anything for anyone that ask for his help. One thing about Larry is he is always full of Love for
giving but never want to look for receiving anything in return. At this time I his other Mother his Step Mother his Spiritual Mother, and his Mother among all his other Mothers are asking for everyone to reach out and help us along with The
Most high Father in raising funds so he can have the double lung transplant to

with his Wife and make plans to continue to work to help others with out asking
