Spreading the word brings me one step closer to finding my living donor.
Waiting for a kidney transplant is one of the most difficult things I’ve ever had to face. Every day, I deal with the uncertainty and the physical toll of living with polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The exhaustion, nausea, and swelling are constant reminders of how much my health has declined. It’s hard to watch life go on while feeling like I’m just barely keeping up. I know there are many things beyond my control in this process, and it’s tough to wait for something that could change my life.
But the support I’ve received from all of you—my family, friends, and even people I don’t know—gives me hope. Every share of my story, every person who learns about my need for a living donor, brings me one step closer to finding the match that could change everything. A living kidney donor could give me the energy and health I need to continue working, enjoy life with my wife Cheryl, and finally be able to travel and do the things we’ve dreamed of.
If you can, please continue spreading the word. It means more than I can express. And if you or someone you know is considering becoming a living donor, please visit https://giftworksuuh.com/kenl/ to learn more about my story and ways to help.
Thank you for all your support.
