Help Sandy Ketch while she battles serious health issues

If you know Sandy, you know she’s always helping others, with no need for recognition, and never wanting the attention on herself. For as long as I have known her, she’s been a rock for her friends, family and anyone in need—never asking for anything in return. Now it’s our turn to be there for her.

At just 18, Sandy was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, a lifelong battle she has quietly faced with incredible courage. After a long wait, she finally received the gift of a life, receiving a kidney transplant on August 20, 2024.

But this summer, after almost a year of stable labs things took a turn for the worse: her body began rejecting the new kidney.

With in the past few months, Sandy has endured:
    •    ⚠️ Four hospitalizations in only three months
    •    ⚠️ Hemoglobin levels plunging to a terrifying 4.7 (normal is 12–15)
    •    ⚠️ White blood cell counts dropping to a life-threatening <0.20 (normal is 4–10.8)

The powerful medications meant to save her kidney are now threatening her life. Despite saving every bit of leave time from 20 years of faithful work, Sandy has been able to work only 7–10 days in three months. The financial strain, combined with her fight for both physical health and mental exhaustion, is overwhelming.

Sandy has always been the helper. Now she needs us.
