    You and your family are an incredible inspiration. My 19 year old is severely autistic and the violent meltdowns have only recently stopped, somewhat. I don’t comment much but just seeing all that y’all have been through and still are able to put those beautiful smiles on brings so much joy and encouragement. Keep it up y’all! - Dr. Blues 😎✌️

    So happy for you Lonnie! You look great, it’s awesome to see you without oxygen. You seem like a very mature, insightful young man. Thank you for the Q&A, that was very interesting to hear from a patient perspective after the fact. (I’m a respiratory therapist)

    It's amazing to hear him talk! I remember back when he was pretty sick and could only talk in like a whisper. I know his voice has changed a bit but he sounds great now! Hoping he continues to feel better and better💙

    I’m a GPA and kidney transplant patient. The first two years post-transplant can be tough. The best advice I can give is to know the symptoms of sepsis and cytomegalovirus.
    Best wishes! 💕

    You are looking wonderful Lonnie! So happy you're on the other side of this. God bless the donor and their family. My granddaughter is 9 years in with her new kidney she received from a living donor 5 years after developing 2 different rare kidney diseases and losing both her kidneys. She will be 18 on July 12th. She has been struggling emotionally and therefore physically the past few years. It is taking a toll. Sending love from Wilsonville Oregon

    i just got diagnosed with gpa and vasculitis. i’m 23 so hearing about this from another young person makes me feel better. mine so far has not been nearly as life threatening as his. my lungs are good i was just having the typical sinus issues and a skin rash. it did start off with acute pancreatitis with necrosis but that wasn’t too much to deal with. i have my next 3 rituxan infusion scheduled and i’m hoping for the best! it’s a very scary situation knowing what can happen throughout this disease

Still keeping him and your family in our prayers❤ my oldest has autism and my little 2 year old just recently was in the hospital for pneumonia so I was with him for only 2 days and it was hard to juggle it all and we only have 4 kids. I can't imagine how you and your fam did it for months. Kuddos!!! ❤

    Lonnie Jr. I am just so happy to see you smiling once again. If you graduate later because of this life is long enough people take their time or change major's and nobody thinks about later in life. If you decide on college your story looks good on an application. From the stories about your relationship with your siblings it looks good too.

    Hello dear Lonnie & Momma, thank you so much for sharing a part of your private lives. I am learning so much about the after effects of your journey. Lonnie you are very intelligent. You made me laugh, when you said, I don't have much choice!!! No kidding Sherlock!!
    Lonnie I have watched the first day you were sick. My heart wished that I could do something for you & your family. I have to admit, it was very hard for me to watch. I did say prayers for you & everyone!
    I understand what it feels like to lose very close family members!
    Lonnie you have been so gracious, throughout this journey. But I must say your Momma was a warrior( so were you Lonnie) I have strong love for you momma! Your household became so much stronger, I feel that truly in my heart! I have nothing but LOVE for you & whole family. I pray everyday Lonnie that you get stronger with vitality, & that you achieve whatever your heart desires! Again, thank you Momma, for just being you! 💞💙💞

    Thank you guys for making this video. The last thing I saw was a short that Lonnie was donated lungs & was going into surgery. I didn’t know if he made it through (you probably posted something I missed). Just pay attention to Lonnie’s mental health because I’ve been dealing with chronic pain, botched surgery etc. I only made it through because my mother was watching me like a Hawk. She was able to talk me out of giving up before any attempts were made

    What a great video. Glad you are doing well Lonnie Jr. Thanks Stephanie and Lonnie Jr. for doing this video. I have organ donation on the back of my state idea. My corneas are in terrible condition and can't be donated, but my other organs should be fine. P.S. I'm not eligible for a cornea transplant in either eye. Take care and continue to heal from your surgery.

    I’ve always had breathing issues that require nebulizers/inhalers/medicine so I know how difficult it can be sometimes to even just sit up and talk, couldn’t imagine how you’re feeling. But Lonnie you look and are so strong!! I’d never be able to tell you just went through such a crazy experience, you look great!
