The 61-year-old's daughter asked one of her father's friends to set up a GoFundMe campaign to help raise money for the transplant. Randy Carodine, Lyles' best friend, set up the page after a message from Lyles' daughter. They want to help the 61-year-old get the new heart he desperately needs. On the GoFundMe page, Carodine wrote: "My name is Randy Carodine. My brother is Bobby "Robert" Lyles. We may not be tied by blood, but we have been brothers for most of our lives. I am asking for immediate help raising $100,000.00 to assist Robert with receiving a heart transplant." Carodine continued: "Robert has been hospitalized in critical condition at Baylor St. Luke's Hospital since July 12, 2022. The medical staff and other employees have given Robert the most extraordinary care available. However, his medical insurance has expired and did not cover a fraction of the costs. "A heart transplant, as you can imagine, is an astronomical cost. Robert has been through several life-saving procedures thus far. The current life sustaining measures are only temporary. Robert needs a new heart immediately." ??? ?? ????@BudsOilersIMPORTANT MESSAGEFormer Oilers LB Robert Lyles is in need of a new heart.
