HELP MY WIFE GET A DOUBLE LUNG TRANSPLANTMy name is Gerald Rutherford and i'm writing this to tell you about my wife Kathy who is 57 years old and the love of my life.Kathy needs a double lung transplant and is currently 5th on the transplant list.She needs this transplant due to COPD and Asthma, she is currently going to pulmonary therapy exercise classes twice a week to get ready for the surgery and is doing this on about 12% lung capacity.We were both born at the same hospitol here in Denver ,Colorado and have been married for 41 years.We have 3 sons 1 daughter inlaw 4 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren who she truly loves.Kathy worked most of her life and also volunteered at several local food banks and other community charities until her breathing became to severe.When her perants health became to bad for them to take care of themselves Kathy went over every day to help take care of them .Kathy would always help anyone that needed it even when her own health was suffering.Kathy misses being able to go up into the mountains , playing with the grandchildren and really doing a lot of regular daily activities.Our goal is to reach $20,000 to help with transplant hospital and medication cost.Our goal after transplant is to be able to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary , please help us achive our goal , thank you for taking time to read this and for consideration of making a donation.
