“I’ve learned not to go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.”
This quote really resonates with me right now. Life isn’t just about catching what comes our way—it’s about giving back, sharing, and supporting one another when we can.
About eight years ago, I found out I had kidney disease through routine bloodwork. I thought I was healthy and had no idea anything was wrong. Over time, my condition progressed, and today, I am on dialysis three times a week. It’s tough—some days are harder than others—and I had to step away from working. But the hardest part is feeling like life is paused.
I dream of traveling again and having the freedom to plan a day without dialysis. I dream of being present with my wife Kamille, my two boys, and my mom—without being tethered to a machine.
Right now, I’m reaching out for help—not just for myself, but for my family who stands beside me. If you feel moved to help, there are two simple ways: you can share my story, helping me reach more people, or learn more about what it means to step forward. https://giftworksuuh.com/johng/
Even the smallest act—like sharing this post—could create a ripple that brings hope and life back to me and my family. Thank you for taking a moment to be part of this journey.
