Dear Friends:
I am coming to you today on
behalf of my brother, Mark
Brock. He suffers from Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
His lungs are failing and he is unable to
do many things that most of us take for
granted. Mark's doctors at University of
Washington Medical Center have told
us that his only option is a life-saving
double lung transplant.
Which brings me to the purpose of this letter, not only is a trans
plant major surgery, it is also extremely expensive. Even with
insurance, there are many expenses that are not covered and must
be paid out of pocket. He will be on a life-time of anti-rejection
medications. Mark will need to travel from Portland to Seattle and
relocate for at least 3 months at the time of his transplant. This is
where your help is desperately needed.
To help ease this Financial burden, a fundraising campaign in Mark's
honor has been established with HelpHOPELive, a nonprofit
organization that has been assisting the transplant community for 30
years. All donations are tax-deductible, are held by HelpHOPELive
in the Northwest Lung Transplant Fund, and are administered by
them for transplant-related expenses only. So please consider
making a donation today.
On behalf of Mark and our family, thank you for your kindness,
generosity, support and prayers; Thank you, Kristina Booker, 503-
281-6092
Please send donations to: HelpHOPELive

100 Matsonford Road, Suite 100

Make checks payable to: HelpHOPELive. Note in memo section:
