Friends, Family, & Fans of the Warnock Family,
We are reaching out to you to ask for your help. This Sunday, July 20th, we will be holding a Fast for our dad, Jamie Warnock . If you don't fast, please pray or send your good vibes his way.
As many of you know, in 2009 our dad had an accident, falling and landing on his back. Many complications arose from that fall. Not only has dad been through numerous surgeries, but a kidney disease that was lying dormant, called FSGS, became active. They have been trying to control it through numerous medications and health changes. Fast forward to now. Our dad's kidneys have begun to fail and a transplant is eminent. His kidneys are currently functioning at 21%. This decline has happened very quickly. We are waiting to hear from his doctor on what exactly needs to be done before his surgery can take place.
Until then, us five sisters are putting together a few fundraisers, an online auction, and a t-shirt and bracelet sale, to help with hospital and recovery costs. We are also starting a blog to keep everyone in the loop as we continue this journey. As we organize these things we will keep everyone updated.
If you have questions, please contact one of us girls. Mom and dad will be very busy and this is something that we can help with. Thank you all so much for your love and support. We know that dad has so many people that love him, and we are grateful for you all. God bless!

I'm a private guy, and don't really like to share my own drama. Haven't shared much of the past 5 years with anyone but family and close friends. Still don't really want to, but my daughters have kinda made it all public.
I was a little upset at first, but am trying to understand their need to do something, other than just watching me fade.
Through all of this, all of our family, and so many of our friends have come to our aid, as I have not been able to work since November o...f 2009.
Anyone with Health issues, understands how quickly the bills can add up, due to Doctors, Hospital stays, and of course, all of those wonderful medications.
However, it does feel wrong to ask people to give even more. It is another level of humility to work through.
Sandi has worked hard to increase her skills, in an effort to replace what I made before I got hurt. She is absolutely amazing, and never complains, but I am afraid that the Doctors are spending it faster than she can make it.
Anyway, I appreciate all those who have already helped, and those who are now planning on doing so.
Really, if you will just keep me in your prayers, I know doing that will do more good than any monetary amount.
Thank you!
Jamie
