#Caring
It’s a simple word, but it holds so much meaning—especially for someone like me, who is living with kidney disease and hoping for a second chance at life.
I’ve been battling kidney disease for about eight years. Now, I’m on dialysis three times a week, which keeps me alive but also takes so much away. It leaves me exhausted, unable to work, and unable to live life the way I want to with my wife Kamille and our two boys. https://giftworksuuh.com/johng/
When I think about what it means to receive a living kidney transplant, the first word that comes to mind is #caring. Because that’s exactly what living donation is—a profound act of caring. It’s someone stepping forward, not out of obligation, but out of compassion. It’s a person deciding to give the gift of more time, more memories, more life.
That kind of caring is rare. It’s powerful. It’s something I hold on to when days get tough and the weight of dialysis feels heavy.

You’ll be connected to a Living Donor Navigator—someone who has already donated a kidney and can answer your questions honestly and without pressure. https://giftworksuuh.com/johng/
Even sharing this post is an act of #caring. Thank you for taking a moment to help me find my chance to live fully again.
