Case Study
Meet Nancy.
Nancy is oxygen dependant, and had been paying over $200 a month to rent a bulky concentrator that made getting around difficult; her entire family chipped in for that life-sustaining oxygen.
Through the Healthcare Network, Nancy’s family learned of a small oxygen conentrator donated to the Collier Resource Center by Sally, who wanted someone to benefit from her late husband’s medical equipment valued at over $4,000.
When Nancy and her family arrived at CRC to pick up the donated machine, a sense of relief washed over her face. Transitioning to a free, reliable, portable oxygen concentrator would give Nancy a new sense of freedom.
“I was praying for a miracle to happen,” Nancy said. “This donation is truly a gift from God.”
As Nancy, her family, and CRC staff stood around that little metal machine, there was not a dry eye in the room. We sent a photo to Sally, who cried tears of joy, too.
