Tasha's CF Lung Transplant Expenses
40 people are unable to survive Cystic Fibrosis every, single, month.
At 10, Tasha was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. A disease with no "Survivor" statistics. A gene rather, causing mucous to eventually overcome its vessel. She has been challenged with the fact: God has chosen to inform her that she has an expiration date.
From that day forth, Tashas direction and goals shifted forever. She was unable to live the life of an average teen age girl. When she grew up, all she wanted to be was alive.
Tasha has been alive, albeit a struggle- a battle she has persevered for the last 14 years. Tasha is a strong willed woman now, 25 years.
Tasha has stepped into Neals life and provided the mother figure Neals daughters had never experienced. The wife Neal has always really needed.
Now, just when everything is going so well for Tasha, wouldn't you know it- here comes life with a painful reality check. Tasha's lungs had grown weak, and with the ability to only hold about 15% of the air her lungs should have been able to hold.
Fast forward to today, Tasha has been in the hospital for little more than a week.
SHE HAD A LUNG TRANSPLANT!
While this is wonderful news, it also comes with its own difficulties. Like most families Neal and Tasha have a home and bills- some medical expenses and 3 children that need to be raised.
Neal is a disabled veteran and his income only stretches so far...but he really is doing his best. Tasha, due to her condition, only has a small income that barely covers a week's groceries.
With the Lung transplant comes a new reality.
Neal and Tasha will be living In San Francisco Ca.(it is required to be approved For the transplant) For the next 3-6 months. Thier entire income can barely cover one months rent in the Most expensive city in America to live in.
These guys really need your prayers live and support!
And if you could spare a couple bucks, I could hardly think of a family more deserving of your compassion.
Thank you.
