Dear friends,
I have an important update to share with you.
We've now raised $7,023 toward my $20,000 kidney transplant fundraising goal. I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who has helped me come this far. Every donation, prayer, and kind message has made a difference in my life.
And now, my transplant preparations are moving forward at full speed.
I'm spending most of my time either at the hospital or travelling back and forth for medical appointments, tests, and evaluations. My days have become a constant cycle of hospital visits, travel, and trying to keep up with everything my medical team needs.
After six years on dialysis, the possibility of a new beginning feels closer than ever. I'm holding on to that hope with everything I have.
But the closer I get to transplantation, the more urgent my financial situation becomes.
Between my Hepatitis C treatment, the growing number of medical tests, travel expenses, and the costs associated with transplantation and recovery, the financial pressure has become overwhelming. I need to build up my funds as quickly as possible so I can move forward without the constant fear of how I'll manage the expenses ahead.
My goal is $20,000, and we've raised $7,023 so far. I still have $12,977 to go.
I'm asking you, from the bottom of my heart, to please help me close that gap.
If you've donated before, please know that I haven't forgotten your kindness. You've already helped me through some of the hardest moments of my life. If you're in a position to contribute again, even a small donation would mean so much.
And if you've been following my story but haven't had the opportunity to help, perhaps now is the time. A contribution of $5, $10, $25, or whatever you can comfortably afford can help me move closer to my goal.
If donating isn't possible, please share my fundraiser. You never know who might come across my story and decide to help.
I'm doing everything I can medically to reach the day when I can finally receive my transplant. Now, I need your help financially to make that future more secure.
You are the people who have kept hope alive for me throughout this journey. I'm deeply grateful for every one of you, and I'm asking you to stand beside me once more.
Thank you for reading my story, for keeping me in your prayers, and for helping me continue fighting for a future beyond dialysis.
With all my gratitude and hope,
Tristian ❤️🙏
