This GoFundMe has been created to help my dear friend, Patricia Rice, who is about to undergo her second organ transplant surgery. Patricia suffers from Polycystic Kidney Disease. In early 2022, she had a successful kidney transplant thanks to a very generous kidney donation from a family member. Unfortunately, the polycystic disease has now overwhelmed her liver, and she is currently in the hospital on the liver donation list waiting. As you can imagine, this is a big surgery yet again with lots of out-of-pocket expenses. My goal is to raise enough funds to bridge her monthly expenses, pay any additional medical costs, and provide her with one less thing to worry about as she prepares for surgery, which we pray is going to happen quickly.
If you know Patty, you know how AMAZING a woman she is. A mom to 3 fantastic children (2 in college, 1 in nursing school). Her whole life is about her family without question, along with a full-time job and at least 4 games of pickleball a week. And if she finds out someone in her circle is in need in any way, she is always ready to jump in and help in any way. The woman honestly never slows down. An amazing wife, mom, sister, friend, co-worker, and neighbor. Please join me in supporting her as she takes on this very challenging moment in her life.
Also, please keep her in your prayers for strength, faith, courage, and healing. The well for prayers is endless. God bless you all and thank you.
