Hello everybody, my name is Daniel Ruta my wife’s name is Lillian Davenport. We have two young children. One is an eight year old girl, and four-year-old boy. My wife, in September, was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. With this came struggles that we couldn’t have imagined. The constant doctors appointments. Trying to find babysitting with one income so that I can continue to work and make some type of money while she is out of work. Or sitting alone in a hospital because I have to work. The original plan was to have her on the heart failure medication’s and hopefully that would strengthen her heart. It turns out the medications aren’t helping it should’ve started helping by now. They just let her know that she has to set an appointment to have a consultation about a heart transplant. When I tell you that she is the last person in the world that deserves this to happen to her it’s an understatement. She is a super mom. The biggest sweetheart you will ever meet and someone who would give her shirt off her back to someone who was in need. She’s Someone who puts her family first above everybody and herself last. To go along with the fear that comes along with a heart transplant and the stress in the family right now. We are drowning in our payments and bills. I am now over a month behind on rent and two payments behind on my car. My PG&E bill is thousands of dollars. My alternator on my car just went out. I can’t come up with enough money for gas after trying to lower some of these bills. I work full-time at the Costco warehouse and I don’t make it anywhere near enough to support us for keeping a roof over our heads. I would give anything right now to take all this other stress off of her so that we could just spend time together and focus on her staying completely stress free as as any little amount of stress can trigger a heart attack and of course there are mountains of it. I’m in the process for looking for a better or second job. But if anybody in this world needs a break, It’s this beautiful soul. Our family is scared. She is scared. And I would really appreciate any kindness that you guys could show. Because she doesn’t deserve to have to worry about every thing falling apart around her while not knowing if everything is gonna be OK. Jesus, please intervene! Thank you everyone!
