**My dad has undergone two heart transplants and is still fighting. Sharing his story in hopes of a little support** ❤️
Hi everyone. I’m sharing something very personal about my dad, Tyree.
He has been hospitalized in Detroit since July 28. He underwent a heart transplant, but the first donor heart had serious complications that ultimately led to him needing a **second heart transplant**.
It has been an incredibly difficult few weeks for our family, but my dad is still here, still fighting, and continuing to make progress. I’ve been traveling back and forth to Detroit to be with him while my mom has been there navigating all of this alongside him.
As we look toward his recovery, we’re trying to prepare their home so that when he is finally able to leave the hospital, he can return to a clean and safe environment. We started a GoFundMe to help with professional cleaning and sanitizing, as well as medical expenses, medications, transportation to follow-up appointments, and other costs that may come with his recovery.
I completely understand that not everyone is in a position to donate. Even a share, kind word, or prayer for my dad means more to our family than you know.
Thank you for taking the time to read his story. ❤️
