Support Andrew's Fight for a New Kidney

As many of you folks know, when I was 6, I started to become jaundice and was on my death bed basically within weeks. This required me to have to fly out of PA and get a Liver Transplant. This wasn't very advanced back then, so I was put on a drug called FK506, which has morped into multiple things since, but the bottom line, it has destroyed my kidneys.

Fast forward to 2020, I got really sick again ( shortly after I met my Wife Brandy ). Without her, I wouldn't be here today. I probably would have given up! January 30th, 2020, I had to undergo another Liver Transplant. This is was very rough, as this was right in the midst of COVID time frame, so a lot was going on with everyone during this time.

After this last transplant, I was told that I would eventually have to get another Kidney, because the drugs have completed destroyed my kidneys. I am at 15% currently, which is right at the end of Stage 4 CKD. Very very soon, I will need a kidney, but even sooner than that I will go on dialysis!

This scares me for multiple reasons, but music is my passion, and I don't want to miss out on shows, and my passion, however, this is something that will take a back seat sooner rather than later due to getting comfortable with dialysis and waiting on a kidney. During this time, my wife and family will be struggling to keep up with medical and monthly bills, so this is what we are reaching out for. If you can donate, even a $1 goes a long way!

If you have any questions for my wife or me, just ask. It may seem like I am fine, because I am still out and about right now, but trust me, I am struggling very much, and I try to just smile and move on. My wife will tell you different, as unfortunately , she gets the negative side of me a lot, but I am trying the best I can with everything.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my story! You are now a part of it, and we are eternally grateful!

Love

Andrew, Brandy and Family -
