My name is Cortez, and I’m asking for your support during one of the most important seasons of my life.
Recently, I received life-changing news — I’ve been approved and placed on the kidney transplant list.
This moment is both a blessing and a battle.
For some time now, I’ve been navigating the physical, emotional, and financial weight that comes with kidney disease. It’s not just about doctor visits or treatments—it’s about the daily reality of fatigue, uncertainty, and pushing forward even when your body doesn’t cooperate.
But through it all, I’ve held on to faith, family, and the belief that better days are ahead.
Being placed on the transplant list means hope is real. It means there is a path forward. It means a second chance at life.
However, this journey comes with significant financial challenges that go beyond medical procedures.
In order to receive a transplant, there are critical expenses that I must be prepared for, including:
- Travel to and from the transplant center
- Lodging for myself and potential living donors
- Post-surgery recovery support and follow-up care
- Time away from work during recovery
These are necessary steps to ensure that when the call comes, I am ready.
That’s why I’m reaching out.
If you feel led to support, any contribution—big or small—will go directly toward helping me cover these essential costs and move forward in this journey.
If you’re unable to give financially, your prayers, encouragement, and sharing this page mean just as much to me.
This isn’t just about a transplant.
It’s about being here longer for my family.
It’s about continuing to walk in purpose.
It’s about receiving the gift of more time.
I truly believe that God is writing a greater story through this season—and I’m trusting Him every step of the way.
Thank you for standing with me.
With gratitude,
Cortez
