It’s never easy to ask for help — especially when it’s this personal. But today, I’m asking, on behalf of someone incredibly special: Eric.
Eric has been living with kidney disease since he was just 11 years old. Over the years, he’s faced unimaginable challenges — not one, but two kidney transplants that ultimately failed. Now, he’s back on dialysis, which takes up 25–30 hours of his week. It leaves him exhausted, but it hasn’t taken away his spirit or his hope.
Despite all he’s endured, Eric keeps showing up — with courage, with resilience, and with the belief that a better future is still possible. But he can’t do this alone.
Right now, Eric is one of over 100,000 people in the U.S. waiting for a kidney transplant. The wait can take years. Years he may not have. What he needs now is a living kidney donor.
Here’s something amazing I recently learned: when someone donates a kidney, their remaining kidney actually grows to handle the work of both. The human body is incredible — and so is the gift of giving someone their life back.
Eric is more than a statistic — he’s a fighter, a son, a friend, and someone who still has so much life left to live. If you or someone you know has ever considered being a living donor, now is the time to learn more.
Every share, every comment, every conversation could help connect Eric to the match he needs.
Please take a moment to read and share Eric’s story. Let’s help bring him closer to the second chance he deserves.
