Hi, my name is Xzavier.

Not long ago, I received a kidney transplant after my own kidney began to fail. I truly believed that the transplant would be the turning point—the moment things finally started to get better. Instead, life took another unexpected and devastating turn.

As a result of the transplant, I developed stage IV PTLD (post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder), a rare and aggressive cancer caused by the immunosuppressant medications required to keep my new kidney functioning. I am now facing intensive treatment, including chemotherapy, while also continuing lifelong transplant medications.

Because of prolonged hospital stays and ongoing treatment, I’ve lost my job and my ability to maintain any sense of normal stability. The medical bills, medication costs, and day-to-day expenses have become overwhelming, and asking for help is not something that comes easily to me.

I’m sharing my story not for sympathy, but out of necessity. Any support—whether through donations or simply sharing this page—would help ease the financial burden and allow me to focus on what matters most right now: surviving, healing, and fighting for more time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Your kindness truly means more than words can express.
