<div>Casey Williams has been battling <strong>Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis </strong>(PSC) and <strong>Autoimmune Hepatitis</strong> (AIH) for many years. <strong>PSC</strong> is a very rare and chronic liver disease with no known cure other than <strong>transplantation</strong>. Casey finally received approval from <strong>UVA Health</strong> to seek a <strong>living donor</strong>. This was the news Casey's family has been praying for! In a remarkable turn of events, Casey's husband Neil stepped forward to be tested and against all odds the surgical team at UVA confirmed that he is a <strong>perfect match</strong>! Their <strong>surgeries</strong> will occur on <strong>April 9</strong>.
</div>
<div>Both Casey and Neil have spent their careers giving to others. Casey has been a dedicated <strong>public school teacher</strong> for the past 20 years (7 in Virginia Beach, 13 in Hampton). She has continued to work full time while battling her illnesses. Neil has served as a first responder as a <strong>Virginia Beach Fire Captain</strong> (15 years) and former <strong>Virginia Beach Police</strong> <strong>Officer</strong> (4 years).
</div>
<div>The Williams family needs your support. The road ahead is a long one. Even with insurance, the "hidden" costs of a transplant are significant. Your donation will go towards:
</div>
<div><strong>Medical Expenses</strong>: Gaps in coverage and continuous post-operative care.
</div>
<div><strong>Travel and Lodging</strong>: Multiple trips to Charlottesville (UVA) for surgery, recovery, and follow-up monitoring.
</div>
<div><strong>Loss of income</strong>: There will be a loss of income with gaps in leave and no short term or long term disability during the critical recovery and rehabilitation period.
</div>
<div><strong>Family Support</strong>: Ensuring their three daughters are cared for while both parents heal.
</div>
<div><strong>Monthly expenses</strong>: Managing the regular monthly expenses with the loss of income.
</div>
<div>EVERY donation, no matter the size, provides Casey and Neil the breathing room they need to focus entirely on healing. Thank you for supporting this amazing family as Neil donates the gift of life to his wife Casey!
