About this fundraiser

My twin brother Patrick passed away June 18, 2020 at 58, due to stage 4 Liver disease.   His Son (Austin Patrick♥️) is 32 and needs help due to the same disease as his Dad.   I'm sure if Patrick was still with us he would do the same thing Austin's Mom is trying to do and Save Austin's Life.

Austin was diagnosed with stage 4 Liver disease which is hereditary on both sides of Austin's immediate family.  He was in and out of the hospital many times in the past year.   Austin is determined to live and has been sober for 5 months and will stay sober indefinitely!!!!

Thankfully,  Austin was accepted into the Liver transplant program in Tampa, FL.  His Mother Sandra will be his caregiver after the transplant surgery.   So she will need help with rent, food, meds, etc… while he is recovering from the transplant surgery.

Sandra makes commission only with her job and doesn't know how she will be able to pay her bills, as well as, Austin's.  Austin was able to find a rental near the hospital so when the transplant program calls him.  

Austin lost his apartment in St Pete due to back to back hurricanes with flooding and roof damage.  It was deemed unliveable which made Austin homeless.  Austin was also in a car accident and his car was totaled.

So much has happened in such a short time.   It is just unfathomable to imagine how Austin is feeling right now.  Hopeless and Scared I am sure but his Mom is very determined to help him with this Give a Hand fundraiser.

Thank you for reading about Austin's plight.  We are also asking for Prayers.   Please Pray for Austin so that his life can continue.   If you can contribute I know Austin will be FOREVER THANKFUL and GRATEFUL for your compassion. 

Sandra his Mom is hoping Austin will get a call soon for his lifesaving transplant.  Thank you!!♥️.
