About this fundraiser

My name is Steve and I'm diagnosed with Interstitial Lung Disease and Congestive Heart Failure. I have to be on at least 8 liters of oxygen at all times, which is preventing me from working full time, and I really need help with my expenses while I'm waiting on my double lung tranplant. I've already been approved for the transplant and I'm currently in the hospital undergoing pre-transplant testing. My right lung is functioning at 10% and my left lung is functioning at 50% - making it very difficult to be active in any way. I didn't want to resort to asking for money, but while I go through the process of applying for benefits and going through appeals, (Social Security has denied me twice), I need money to cover basic needs like rent, food, medications, medical costs that are not covered by my marketplace insurance. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
