Micheline Vendryes
Transplant Type – Kidney
Micheline is suffering from kidney disease, a diagnosis that came as quite a surprise because there is no family history of kidney problems. Doctors say a kidney transplant is essential.
During such an overwhelming time, she’s thankful for the love and support of her three children, and she still enjoys going to the movies when she feels well enough. Even though some days are extremely tiring, she is grateful to still be able to work in home health care, a career that allows her to serve others in their times of need. But right now, she needs your help.
The average kidney transplant costs approximately $442,000. And that’s only the beginning. Even with insurance, which will cover the cost of the transplant, she still faces significant expenses related to the surgery. For the rest of her life, she will need follow-up care and daily anti-rejection medications, which are as critical to her survival as the transplant itself.
You can help by making a tax-deductible donation to NFT in honor of Micheline. If you'd prefer to send your gift by mail, please send it to the NFT Florida Transplant Fund, 3249 W. Sarazens Circle, Suite 100, Memphis, TN 38125. Please be sure to write "in honor of Micheline Vendryes" on the memo line.
Thank you for your generosity!
