Donny's Medical Fund

Donation protected
We are fundraising for our 60 year old step father Donald Arquitt, who became diagnosed with COPD eight years ago. Donny worked construction for over 30 years until he was forced to stop due to COPD taking away his ability to breath easily and do every day activities. He has been hospitalized several times in the ICU, he is on oxogen and several medications daily. He is unable to walk even short distances without becoming  completely out of breath. His doctor just told him that  he is in end stage COPD and the next step is a lung transplant which is a major surgery . He is living on a limited income(disability). We are trying to raise funds to get him to The Lung Institute in P.A. to recieve Lung Stem Cell treatments as his insurance doesnt cover these treatments . With these treaments he will be able to have a longer and  better quality of life  to spend more time with his 8 grandchildren. Any donation no matter how small would be greatly appreciated and mean the world to him and his entire family. Thank you so much.
