Extraordinary People: Raymond Cloud

Extraordinary People is a podcast series highlighting stories of the patients, doctors and other folks who make UK HealthCare a special place and inspire us as we strive to create a healthier Kentucky.

Raymond Cloud loved to be active and part of society, but irreversible scarring in his lungs was making it harder and harder to breath. Feeling like he had nothing to live for when the pandemic started, fate intervened and brought Raymond to Lexington, where he began regularly visiting with a pulmonologist at UK HealthCare. That set him on the path to a double lung transplant. For over a year, he’s breathed easier.
