Many of you know this trapper. Dale Billingsley. He has helped hundreds if not thousands of trappers in the time he has been trapping himself. Dale is about to have a kidney transplant on March 7th. He will probably reach out and "touch" me for putting this on here but i know personally from going thru medical issues that money gets very tight especially afterwards. If you are able, please donate on the Go Fund Me page set up for him at this link (i do not know his mailing address, i will give him the funds in person on march 7th when i meet to pray for him at the hospital before surgery)

Bump

bump for dale

he's in my thoughts. hope all goes well.

Donation and bump.

I don't know how long Dale has been waiting for a kidney, but I can tell you that this is a prayer answered for him. Kidney failure is a life changing event that is hard on all involved. I have been on dialysis for about 2.5 years and can tell you that if I was given a surgery date a month out it would be the longest month of my life. I hope and pray that all goes well, Dale and that your needs are met.

sent with prayer

Was able to make a small donation. Figure every little bit helps. It's been going on a year that I got hit with kidney failure (End Stage Renal Disease). Pretty lucky though, dialysis is keeping me OK. The transplant center (for me it's Spokane) says there are a lot of incidental costs that insurance doesn't cover in transplants. Hope this helps.

Hey Dale, well your going to get a check from me even if you don't want it.
Remember if I can kick throat cancer to the curb you've got this knocked out of the park !
Continuing to pray for your complete and speedy recovery!
Besides I need someone fun to argue with at conventions ha ha
