Support Talia's Selfless Kidney Donation

Hello all, my name is Tamara Miller-Villanueva and my younger sister, Talia Gooch, will be my kidney donor. She is a devoted mother but also a proud grandmother, and on September 16, 2025, will be donating her kidney to me in a truly selfless and life-saving act. She will be traveling to Houston from Nashville to be by my side for the transplant and recovery process.

During this time, she will be away from her family and taking time off work, most likely without pay or with very limited income. I’m reaching out to ask for support in covering her travel, lodging, meals, transportation, and any unexpected medical expenses that may arise while she’s here. She’s putting her own life, responsibilities, and income on hold to save mine — and I want to make sure she’s not carrying any financial burden for doing so. Every donation will go directly to helping her through this time, so she can focus on healing and being the incredible support she’s always been. Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and continued love on this journey.
