Michael Crawford (Black) owner of Dead Sea Records and singer for TAIPAN needs a kidney transplant very soon. He has been on the transplant list in California for 5 yrs and has about 5 more yrs to wait, but his health has gotten much worse in the past six months. He is on dialysis 6 days a week on a machine in his home to stay alive. 
Transplant programs in Phoenix and Tuscon, Arizona are able to give patients kidney transplants within 1 yr. Doctors have estimated Michael has about 2 yrs left to live without a transplant living on the dialysis machine. The decision has been made to help Michael save money as quickly as possible to move to Arizona and qualify for the kidney recipient list. HIs blood type is type O negative, which adds more urgency because he can only receive blood transfusions and kidneys from another type o negative person (1 in 10,000). 
The best chance to live for Michael is to move to Arizona and the goal of this gofundme is to raise enough donations to rent a moving van and pay the deposit/first month's rent on an apartment. With help from friends and fans of his band, TAIPAN, we can reach the goal quickly. 
Michael wants to move to Arizona within 6 weeks and this can help him to get there and get his kidney transplant.
