Un transplante para Paula

Donation protected

Hello, I am Paula Bouchot, I am 48 years old. In February 2021 I was diagnosed with pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis or LAM. Since the disease is very advanced my one and only hope was a double lung transplant. Luckily doctors achieved this surgery successfully, but now I need your help.

LAM is a silent, chronic disease, exclusive to women, that fills the lungs with air bubbles and leads to respiratory failure.

After many studies and months of pulmonary rehabilitation I was accepted on the waiting list for a double lung transplant. In less than 24 hours the lungs arrived. I was operated and treated by 17 specialists, including cardiologists, anesthesiologists, rehabilitators, pulmonologists, and infectologists.

We need $250,000 USD to complete the cost of the transplant, medical fees, transportation of the lungs, previous treatments and studies, as well as medications and treatment for life.

Your support is very important to reach the goal that will allow me to have the opportunity to continue writing my own story, to stay alive and easily breathe.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Hola, soy Paula Bouchot, tengo 48 años. En febrero de 2021 me diagnosticaron linfangioleiomiomatosis pulmonar o LAM. La enfermedad está muy avanzada mi única esperanza fue un trasplante bipulmonar, se logró pero ahora necesito de tu ayuda.

LAM es una enfermedad silenciosa, crónica, exclusiva de mujeres, que llena de bullas de aire los pulmones y lleva a la insuficiencia respiratoria.

Después de muchos estudios y meses en rehabilitación pulmonar fui aceptada en la lista de espera para trasplante bipulmonar. En menos de 24 horas llegaron los pulmones. Me operaron y trataron 17 especialistas, entre cardiólogos, anestesiólogos, rehabilitadores, neumólogos, infectólogos.

Necesitamos $250,000. USD para completar el costo del trasplante, honorarios médicos, transporte de los pulmones, tratamientos y estudios previos, además de medicamentos y tratamiento de por vida.

Tu apoyo es muy importante para alcanzar la meta que me permitirá tener la oportunidad de seguir escribiendo mi propia historia, de seguir con vida y respirar tranquila.

DE ANTEMANO, GRACIAS.
