<div> Our Story

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My name is Meredith, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my incredible mother, Kelley Marie Chrisman.

</div>

<div>She has always been the heart of our family — strong, kind, and full of life. But now, she’s facing the fight of her life.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>After years of battling Interstitial lung disease (ILD), her lungs can no longer support her.

</div>

<div>Doctors have told us that a double lung transplant is her only chance for survival and a return to the full, beautiful life she deserves.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> The Challenge

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>While we’re beyond grateful that she has taken the steps in beginning the transplant process with Vanderbilt Transplant Center, the costs are overwhelming. Even with insurance, the financial burden is staggering — including:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Transplant surgery costs

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Lifelong anti-rejection medications

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Frequent travel to and from the transplant center

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Post-surgery rehabilitation and care

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Temporary housing near the hospital

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We estimate that our family will require a substantial amount of assistance to cover these essential expenses.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> How You Can Help

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Every dollar brings us closer to giving Mom the gift of breathing freely again — something most of us take for granted.

</div>

<div>Here’s how you can help:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Donate — No contribution is too small. Every bit helps ease her path to recovery.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Share — Please share this campaign with your friends, family, church, or social media community.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Pray and send love — Your encouragement means the world to us during this uncertain time.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> About Kelley

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She’s the kind of person who has always cared for everyone else first — whether it’s cooking for neighbors, helping at church, or being the friend who always listens.

</div>

<div>Now she needs our help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Her dream is simple: to live long enough to see her grandchildren grow up, enjoy more sunsets with family, cheer on more Chiefs games, and take her first deep, easy breath with her new lungs.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> Our Promise

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We’ll post regular updates on her journey — from surgery preparation through recovery — so you’ll see exactly how your support is making a difference.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>All funds will go directly toward her transplant-related expenses, managed transparently by our family.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> From Our Hearts

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for reading, sharing, and caring.

</div>

<div>Your kindness gives my mom — and all of us — hope, faith, and the strength to keep going.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With gratitude,

</div>

<div> Meredith
