My manager Jay is involved in the B*Nice foundation, which was formed by his girlfriend Lindsay and her family in search of a lung donor for her cousin Billy who has cystic fibrosis:
"Billy Senopoulos is 27 years old and living with cystic fibrosis. His illness has progressed and he needs a double lung transplant to save his life. The waiting list for cadaveric (non-living) transplants is extremely long and Billy is running out of time to receive a transplant. Billy's best hope now is to receive transplanted lobes from two living donors.
In addition to Billy, approximately 89,000 people throughout the country are also awaiting transplant surgery, the "gift of life". Each day, about 74 people receive an organ transplant. However, 17 people die each day waiting for transplants that can't take place because of the shortage of donated organs.
The B Nice Foundation has been created to raise awareness about living and cadaveric (non-living) organ donation and to search for two lung lobe donors for Billy. In this website, you will find information about Billy's journey, cystic fibrosis, living lung donation, as well as ways in which you may be able to help Billy win this battle. Please contact us today- B Nice... save a life!" (http://www.nicelungs.com/index.asp)
Please visit their website (www.nicelungs.com)for more information about Billy and how you can help.
Thanks
