5K / Neighborhood yard Sale




Brandan Sullivan has been suffering with End Stage Renal Failure (Kidney Failure), since March 2000. Because of the dialysis treatments that he has had to do, Brandan has also developed Congestive Heart Failure. Recently, Brandan has been approved to have a kidney transplant. A family member has come forward to be the kidney donor for him.

In order to restore Brandan's health so that he can resume a somewhat normal life¬style, this kidney transplant is necessary. With this transplant comes a big expense. Even with insurance, the costs are extremely high.•
Co-Payment for surgery - $2,300.00•
Necessary drugs following surgery - $4,000.00•
20% Deductible Fee for hospital - $2,238.00(This deductible does not include doctors or anesthesiologist)
These are only some of the costs that we are currently aware of. Beside the medical expenses, there will also be cost of living expenses. This is a huge financial burden that looks impossible for them to meet right now.Brandan will be in the hospital for approximately 7-15 days, and recovery will be an additional 6-8 weeks before he will be able to return to work. This will all take place if there are no complications.

I am hoping that we can get as many people together as possible to help out this cute little family. I have scheduled a
neighborhood yard sale for March 27th and a
5K is also being put together for May 8th.

There is also an account set up at the Cyprus Credit Union for those who would just like to donate money.
