Regaining My Freedom

Several years ago, I was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. Since then, my life has changed in ways I never expected. As my kidney function has slowly declined, so has my energy, my freedom, and at times, my hope. I do my best to stay strong—for my amazing wife and our three incredible kids—but some days, it’s really hard.

The truth is, my best chance for a healthier future is a living kidney donor. A transplant would give me the opportunity to regain my strength, be present with my family, and live without the constant cloud of illness hanging over our lives. It would mean less time worrying about medical appointments and more time making memories with the people I love most.

The wait for a deceased donor can take five years or more. And while I try to stay hopeful, it’s a difficult reality knowing my health may continue to decline during that time. But a living donor could change everything. Living donation offers better outcomes and a faster recovery—and most importantly, it offers time. Time to be a dad, a husband, and to just live again.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I’m holding on to hope—and hoping for a miracle.
