Jeff had a kidney transplant earlier this week.
He did well in surgery but had complications later. When they extubated him, his airway collapsed, he had a respiratory arrest, then a cardiac arrest. He was resuscitated, and is now home, but is facing major medical bills for all of this.
a gofundme page has been started for him, Fundraiser for Christine Bagby by Javad Shadzi : Jeff Bagby Transplant Recovery
Jeff has given a great deal to this community. I hope we can support him in this.

I haven't personally met Jeff, but have benefitted greatly from his programs and knowledge that he shares freely with the DIY community. In my opinion he is a great example of what the DIY community can be. So please contribute a few bucks at the gofund site to help out a DIY friend. And in the comments tell him to visit diyaudio more often!
