ARIZONA LIVER LIFE WALK - APRIL 18, 2015 - PLEASE DONATE FOR CAROL FAIRALL

PLEASE HELP CAROL FAIRALL RAISE 
MONEY FOR THE LIVER LIFE WALK

Carol is one of the fund raiser for the Liver Life Walk which will take place next Saturday on April 18th. Since Carol is a liver transplant patient this is a special nonprofit that is very important to her.

Elder Abuse
Prevention
Carol appreciates any dollar amount donation to this tax deductible charity that supports liver research. She is unable to walk this year like in the past because of her worsened transplanted liver rejection. She is a victim of elder abuse where her slumlord refused to remove the mold from her apartment and even refused to give her a mold free apartment. The slumlord even blocked the delivery of her medication while refusing two written reasonable accommodations requests. Sadly, Carol never saw justice when her Fair Housing Rights were violated. No, we got nearly $25,000 of wrongful judgments for a disputed $4,000 debt for moving early to save her life.

In the past five years she has volunteered over 10,000 hours writing Facebook and newspaper articles on elder abuse, giving presentations how not to be a victim of elder abuse, and communicating to state and federal lawmakers about needed elder protection laws.

This was a picture of Carol Fairall and Millie Toedebush at the Liver Life Walk two years ago. The event is at the Indian Steele Park in Phoenix. Millie is 99 years old and another elder abuse victim. Millie is still alive and we see her often.

Please help Carol raise money for her favorite charity. That is Carol's wheelchair that is now uses all the time because of her transplanted liver rejection caused by the elder abuse she suffered (exposure to toxic mold by a slumlord).

IT IS DIFFICULT TO GET A LIVER TRANSPLANT IN ARIZONA 
BECAUSE OF THE LACK ON DONORS

Arizona ranks as the worst state to get a liver transplant because of the lack of donors. 
There are over 6,000 liver transplants a year in the United States but over 1,500 people die waiting for a transplanted liver. Over 27,000 people die a year due to liver disease. Presently, the four Arizona hospitals that do liver transplants have 300 people waiting for a liver donor in 2015. That is 14% of the total for the entire nation of 4,207 people waiting for needed liver transplants. That is very sad for Arizonans.



LIVER DISEASE IS THE 4TH LEADING CAUSE OF DEATHS IN ADULTS

Over six million children have liver disease and 75% of the infected public are unaware they have liver disease. Up to 5.4 million Americans have chronic Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C which costs almost $16 Billion a year to treat. Hepatitis is ten times more infectious than HIV.
The ways you can catch Hepatitis are:
1.   Shared needles and tattoos
2.   Unprotected sex
3.   Alcoholism
4.   Poor nutrition
5.   Hospitals
6.   Kidney dialysis
7.   Travel to areas with poor sanitation
8.   Blood transfusions
9.   Mother-infant transmission
10. Other diseases
Hepatitis A has a vaccine and it comes from contaminated food and water. Hepatitis B can be prevented with a vaccination and the recovery time is six months. Hepatitis C is incurable because no vaccine exists.
Hepatitis is highly infectious. Household Hepatitis is spread by shared razors and toothbrushes (anything that might have blood on it).

SPECIAL NOTE: Carol's liver rejection was caused by childhood diseases. She had her liver transplant on October 30, 2007. Her liver transplanted rejection started in 2009 when she was exposed to toxic mold that her apartment slumlord refused to resolve. That is why we fight elder abuse and support the American Liver Foundation

 APRIL IS NATIONAL DONATE LIFE MONTH -
ORGAN DONATING - THE GIFT OF LIFE

An average of 80 organ transplants are performed every day. But 123,000 people are on organ transplant waiting lists in the United States. An average of 21 people die every day because an organ transplant was unavailable. Ninety percent (90%) Americans say they support organ donations but only thirty percent (30%) have taken the essential steps to become an organ donor.
Please donate the Gift of Life by becoming an organ donor.
In April 2013, we attended the DONATE LIFE EVENT at the Arizona State Capitol. We had the honor to meet the "Thanksgiving Mom" and listen to her story. Her daughter had died in an automobile accident and six of her organs were used to save the lives of six people. Those six people are grateful and spend every Thanksgiving celebrating together with the Thanksgiving Mom. It was truly an inspiring story but no press or state leader heard the story because few came to this important event.
SAD!

ERMA BOMBECK - WAITED TOO LONG FOR A KIDNEY TRANSPLANT AND DIED 
 APRIL IS NATIONAL DONATED LIFE MONTH

Erma Bombeck
Erma Bombeck (02/21/1927 - 04/22/1996) was an Arizona writer of books and newspaper articles
about the humor in everyday life. I knew this fantastic lady when I worked at Valley National Bank located at 44th St. and Camelback Rd. in the late 70's.
Ms. Bombeck was so funny and kind. She would bring the staff presents on their birthdays and at Christmas time. She never used her money or influence to get to the front of the line for her needed kidney transplant. In the 80's she earned a million dollars a year due to her popularity.
Erma Bombeck was an Arizona Hero who changed the life of everyone she knew or read her writings. For more information see: The Erma Bombeck Project
April is National Donated Life Month so please sign to be an organ donor on your driver's license and legal documents.

LAST DAY TO SUPPORT CAROL FAIRALL AT SATURDAY'S LIVER LIFE WALK

List of abused seniors at Senior Living Facility
This week we have been trying to raise funds for the Liver Life Walk being held this Saturday at the Steele Indian Park. We have only raise 70% of our $150 goal and the event is short of its goal by 33%. Times are difficult to donate but the need is so great so we ask you to donate today to this very worthwhile charity.

Carol received her transplanted liver in 2007. She was told she was the lucky ones because at that time she got her living saving transplant while 19 other people died. Sadly, it took a case of landlord retaliation of not resolving a toxic mold problem in her former senior living apartment house to start her transplanted liver rejection in 2009. That slumlord even blocked the delivery of her medication and ignored two written reasonable accommodation requests by us and our attorney. We have never received any justice for us and the 38 decease seniors that were abused by the senior living apartment house.

James Koenig
We have been fighting for the rights of the elderly since then with over 20,000 hours of volunteer efforts. Our accomplishments have been rewarding since we discovered that senior living apartment manager was a Medicare Fraud Felon and he is now back in jail for parole violations. The senior living apartment house has gone bankrupt and the feds are destroying the facility because it is dangerous with bad electrical wiring and toxic mold. Finally, we were able to get the Ponzi scheme mastermind, James Koenig that created the problem a jail sentence of 43 years. The judge stated that Koenig deserved the long prison sentence not only because of the $250 million he defrauded from 2,000 investor but for the 23 senior living facilities he destroyed causing over 2,500 cases of elder abuse.

Thank you Facebook Friends for your interest in fighting Elder Abuse and Fraud.

NOTE: We will be at the walk this Saturday because they will be interviewing Carol about her efforts in fighting elder abuse. We believe Carol received the Gift of Life in order to help protect so many seniors from elder abuse.
SPECIAL NOTE: The website to donate under the walker name Carol Fairall “THE REAL FACES OF ELDER ABUSE” is:
