Ask How a Tornado Saved My Life
Ask How a Tornado Saved My Life
On April 16th, 2011, the tornado that struck the Raleigh area made a huge impact in my life. While the tornado damaged my house, I later realized that it actually saved my life. Since the tornado, I've battled and am currently facing challenging medical situations that have taken an emotional and financial toll.
We are urgently seeking donations to send 4 generators to Hendersonville, NC, an area affected by Hurricane Helene. These generators are critical for individuals with medical conditions that require electricity to operate equipment such as CPAP or oxygen machines. We are working to get them delivered as soon as possible. If you would like to help, please click the button below to contribute! Your support can make a vital difference.
Urgent donations are needed! Helping Hands for Haiti is facing a critical time and urgently needs our help. Due to recent storms, the local school in Haiti has suffered significant damage. In addition to repairing the school, the community also needs funds to provide food, school supplies, and other essential items to those in need.

In October of 2000, I learned that I had suffered a major heart attack and ended up having a quadruple open heart bypass surgery.
10 years later I had a moderate heart attack while dealing with family problems. This led to a second open heart bypass surgery.
One year later, in 2011, a tornado struck my house and while it did not demolish it, I can no longer live in it.
However, because of that tornado I was made aware of an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. If the aneurysm had not been found, I would not be here today.
I have also dealt with kidney stones and an overactive thyroid.
My heart has now failed. Due to heart failure, I've been equipped with a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD). This is device is in place to pump blood through my heart until I am able to get a heart transplant. I am currently in need of a generator that will serve as a backup power source, allowing me to keep my LVAD batteries charged and my heart pumping at all times. To get approved for a heart transplant, I have to prove that I have adequate money to pay for rejection medication, which insurance does not cover. Therefore, I cannot move forward with this surgery without the funding.
