Event Description

Chuck Campbell needs a lung transplant very soon. He and his friends are having a raffle to help him get one. If you can help please do or if you can help get this cause more exposure it would be very greatly appreciated.

A car and townhouse/cash equivelent, are being raffled off to raise money for Chuck Campbell's lung transplant that insurance will not cover. The raffle will be ending soon.

If anyone would be interested in helping his cause, it would be greatly appreciated. I am passing the word along in hopes of my doing that, Chuck can get the surgery he needs.

The Bonnie Hunt show aired today with Chuck Campbell. On Bonnie Hunt's facebook page a note from Chuck Campbell's Mom was posted to Bonnie. I am sharing it here:

THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH. WE LOVE YOU!!!
MOM, Mary

Chuck Campbell was on the "Bonnie Hunt" this morning (Monday). Below is an udate of his appearance there.

I am watching the "Bonnie Hunt" show as I type. This has been one of the most moving talk shows I have ever seen. Not only has Bonnie been so completely wonderful in helping spread the word with Chuck Campbell and his family, but Joey Pants a guest donated out of his pocket. People in the audience got up and took money from their pockets and donated right on the show to Chuck.
There are no words to tell people what I saw on Bonnie Hunt's show this morning as Chuck, his wife, children, Chris Hagel and his wife sat crying. Beautiful, wonderful, touching and something I will remember the rest of my life. Giving, caring people from Bonnie, her guests and her audience. She is truly also a remarkable human being.

That is my update to the people on this site also helping with prayers, spreading the word and or donations, you are all truly remarkable human beings too I will keep everyone posted as I am updated. Thank you everyone.

much love,
Myra

Chuck has alot of support on facebook...one of the many replies he has received: If anyone can reach down deeply in their hearts and spread the word if not donate that is what this Country is about in times of need. WIth the health care system the way it is in the USA, we should all join hands in helping one another despite what Insurance companies will cover. When people unite they can move the world...

Hi Chuck, my name is Vito Valenti and I am a 9/11 First Responder who is now disabled with Pulmonary Fibrosis. I want to tell you that my thought's and prayer's are with you, and your family always. I have done many interviews on tv, and in the press, along with yourself. I was also in the Michael Moore's movie SICKO, ...and on the VIEW with Rosie O' Donnell. Chuck, I want to say to you stay strong, and God Bless You.

Myra - I fwded this to a friend and former producer at Channel 13 in Houston. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Also, I'll send to Ellen Degeneres and suggest that everyone who sees this does the same.
