Save My Daddy

Our Daddy is Dying. We have asked Mema to send out a special SOS for those that may be able to help him.

Hello,

Let me introduce you to My Son. He is a 34 year old father of two beautiful children who are about to loose their daddy. His heart is dying. J.W. Lively is fighting for his life while he is beginning the Heart Transplant process. We are asking for your support. This is hard for us to do, but it must be done.

Heart Transplants from beginning to end can cost close to one million dollars. Dr. J. Cookman has referred My Son to The Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota. The cost of transportation, accommodations, medicine and general expenses are beyond our reach, at this time.

WE need to get Jeff to Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota, as soon possible. Living Expenses, Medicines, Transportation, General Expenses are way out of our range, at this time. This is why WE have started, Save My Son Campaign and his Children have started, Saving My Daddy Campaign.

We are racing against time and a dying heart.

WE ask each of you to help in whatever way you can. It does not have to be just money. Prayers are welcomed, too!!


WE Are frightened beyond words~


Today, Our Daddy is, 34-year old white male, which at age 32, suffered a very large anterior wall myocardial infarction in February 2007. He underwent angioplasty and stent of that vessel and then two weeks later underwent repeat angioplasty and stent of the posterolaterial branch. He suffered another myocardial infarction on 3/01/09 when he presented with complete occlusion of the circumflex branch. The prior stent in the LAD was patent. He had another angioplasty and stent and required inotropic support with balloon pumping as well. He suffers now from a severe ischemic cadiomyopathy, and chronic congestive heart failure, with a 15% ejection fraction. Healthy individuals typically have ejection fractions between 50% and 65%.

According to Dr. Cookman, ‘This will be a lifelong condition for him and will require intensive medical therapy.

Jeff has had implantation of a permanent pacing defibrillator, shortness of breath, with three leaks in his values; this is a deadly combination, in itself.


According to Jeff’s Cardiologist, Dr. Joseph Cookman, who saved our Daddy twice, now, states; “I consider this patient completely and totally disabled and this will be a lifelong condition. I do not anticipate improvement in his left ventricular function enough that would change this recommendation.” Joseph J Cookman, DO


Jeff is now on oxygen. WE need to get him to Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota, NOW!
