Madonna Archer Powers received her double lung transplant on Wednesday, July 28, 2021, thanks to the generosity of an organ donor and their family. It's been a long, hard road -- two hospitals and 4 years later our prayers were answered thanks to NYU Langone Medical Center.
We are asking for donations to help her with the many expenses and endless medical bills she's going to incur during her recovery and rehabilitation.
No one deserves this miracle more than Madonna. She has endured multiple hospital stays, day and night treatments at home, a fractured spine, and so much more. She suffers from a rare chronic lung condition called Bronchiectasis, which permanently damaged her lungs. She has been on and off the transplant list numerous times, and was even dropped by the first hospital that promised to bring her a miracle. She was put on hold during Covid lockdown, which made finding healthy lungs all the more difficult.
Through her unwavering faith, strength, and determination, she finally got the call and rushed to the hospital for the surgery she and many others thought would never come.
Now she's on the long road to recovery, and although she is doing well with that, it all costs lots of money. Any amount you can spare will be greatly appreciated. With all of our support and prayers she'll make it through and finally be able to walk on the beach again.
