So many of you have reached out asking what you can get Victoria or if there is anything that we need. I feel we have been Blessed Beyond Measure with her Gift of Life and ALL the support we have had leading up to this. God has provided to us everything we need, when we needed it.
I understand so many of you have a servants heart and so I ask, if you wish to do something for Victoria here are a few suggestions.
* We are in a national blood shortage. Go Give Blood. V has had to have 7units of blood already & might need more before this is all done. She has no immune system right now so her body can’t keep up with making RBC & therefore needs transfusions.
* DONATE LIFE. If you are not a Donor, BE A DONOR. You don’t need your body when you are gone but someone else does. Save their life. Anyone can be a donor no matter what your health is. Organ donation is not the only way to save lives. Be someones angel. www.donatelife.net
* Support COTA in honor of Victoria by contributing. COTA stands ready to assist Victoria with a lifetime of transplant-related expenses. Moving forward, she will be on 5 medications for the rest of her life. She will require yearly scopes to check for infection/rejection & at some point along the way she might face a bump in the road. COTA funds will assist with transplant-related expenses such as meds, procedures, hospital stays, insurance premiums and even loss of income. She’s just a teenager now but one day she’ll be a wife & mommy. Having COTA to help pull things together when & IF she needs it takes the stress off. www.COTAforVictoria.com
* PRAY. We can ALL use a little prayer
