Donation protected
Hello everyone! We are creating this GoFundMe in hopes of supporting Tucker Velez through his journey as he awaits a kidney transplant. On December 3rd 2021, Tucker was in severe pain and rushed to the Emergency Room. After a litany of tests over the coming days in the hospital, he was diagnosed with double renal failure and his world has been turned upside down. This came as a shock to him, his family and those who have gotten to know him over the years, as Tucker was a seemingly healthy 32 year old male with a strict diet and workout regimen. While there are still many uncertainties for his future, what we know right now is that Tucker has begun dialysis 3 times a week for the foreseeable future while he awaits a living donor match for his kidney transplant. This GoFundMe is to raise money to cover costs associated with the ongoing medical treatments, extended hospital visit, prescriptions and unforeseen expenses associated with his double renal failure.
For those interested in being a potential donor, we will post updates with links below on how to be tested to see if you are a match for Tucker.
