Walk With Me Challenge
Hey Friends and Family. Thank you for visiting this donation page and supporting myself and all others on this earth who are affected on a daily basis directly or indirectly by the many difficulties that liver disease causes. Our livers are the best friend that many of us never know how much they do for us until something isn't right. I am teaming up for this walk alongside the Mid South Liver Alliance and all of my friends and family who have supported me through this entire process of being a lifesaving transplant recipient. My family and I are participating in this fund raiser to bring awareness to those who are curious about their own health and also to shine light on the amazing gift of life that organ donors around the world give each and every day to people just like me.
Thank you again, and much love from the bottom of my heart. Austin, Erin, Ketner & Sonny
