<div>
 Our family is asking for help during one of the most difficult and heartbreaking times we have ever experienced.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 My husband, Timothy, is only 27 years old and is fighting for his life. Timothy has end-stage sarcoidosis, a serious disease that has severely damaged his lungs and left him critically ill.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 He is currently hospitalized and requires ECMO and advanced life support to help keep his heart and lungs functioning. Despite everything he has been through, Timothy continues to fight.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 His medical team has referred him to Baylor St. Luke’s in Houston, Texas, where he has been accepted for evaluation for a potential lifesaving lung transplant. Getting him safely to Houston is the next critical step in his journey.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Because of how sick Timothy is, he cannot simply travel by car or commercial airplane. He requires specialized medical air transportation with the ability to continue his life-support needs during the flight.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 The transportation has been approved, but insurance is taking more time than we have to work through the remaining coverage arrangements. With Timothy’s condition, we are terrified that waiting on insurance could cost him valuable time.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 That is why we are reaching out for help.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Our goal is to raise enough money to help cover the cost of Timothy’s specialized medical transportation from New Orleans to Houston, along with the immediate expenses that come with getting him to the transplant center.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 We know times are hard for everyone, and we are grateful for anything you can give. Even $5 can help. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser, praying for Timothy, or simply sending our family words of encouragement means more than you know.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Timothy is only 27. He has so much more life to live, and we are doing everything we possibly can to get him to the place where he may have a chance at receiving new lungs and a second chance at life.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Please help us get Timothy to Houston.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Please pray for Timothy.
</div>
<div>
 ❤️ Please share his story.
</div>
<div>
 And if you are able, please donate.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Every dollar, every share, and every prayer brings us one step closer to getting Timothy where he needs to be.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Thank you for standing with our family and helping us fight for Timothy’s life.
</div>
