Yolanda Barquet from California suffers from pulmonary hypertension and a disorder causing too much iron to build up in her lungs. Problems with her health began when she was just 3 years old, and she began coughing up blood.

 

Yolanda needs a double lung transplant to stay alive.

 

The average double-lung transplant cost approximately $800,000. Even though her health insurance will cover the cost of the transplant itself, she’ll still face significant expenses for follow-up care and daily anti-rejection medications for the rest of her life.
