A Fight Beyond the Physical
I’m still waiting for a living kidney donor — someone who can give me a second chance at life. Living donation isn’t just about saving a life. It gives something even deeper: hope, freedom, and time.

Living Donors Are Incredible
When I received a kidney from my mom back in 1998, it changed everything. That one selfless act gave me nearly 25 beautiful years of health, energy, and life. Now that her kidney is failing and I’m back on dialysis, I’m reminded every day how precious that gift truly was—and how powerful living donation can be.
Help Save Breeden’s Life!
That’s why finding a living kidney donor for Breeden is so incredibly important. Breeden’s story is remarkable—over 25 years ago, she faced complete kidney failure and received the most beautiful gift from her mom: a kidney that let her live a vibrant, healthy life for decades. But recently, that kidney began to fail, and she is now back on dialysis. While dialysis keeps her alive, it’s draining and shapes every part of her life.
Living Donation is an Incredible Gift
I’ve been living with kidney disease for over 25 years. In 1998, I experienced complete kidney failure. My mom gave me the most selfless #gift I could have ever received—one of her kidneys. That transplant gave me nearly 25 beautiful, healthy years. It let me live a fuller life, spend time with my husband, and simply be me.
Support For Breeden
Currently, Breeden is one of more than 100,000 people in the U.S. waiting for a lifesaving kidney transplant. It can take years to find a match, and while she waits, my worry is that dialysis will continue to take a toll on her health and quality of life.
To Share is to Care
Every year, around 6,000 people step forward as living kidney donors, saving lives and giving hope to people like me. In 1998, I faced complete kidney failure and received a lifesaving transplant from my mom. That kidney gave me nearly 25 beautiful, healthy years. Recently, I returned to dialysis, and while I am grateful it keeps me alive, life on dialysis is exhausting, stressful, and limiting. Everything revolves around treatments now.
A Journey Toward a New Beginning
Waiting for a kidney transplant can take more than five years, and for me, it’s a constant reminder of the uncertainty I face. With each passing day, my health continues to decline as I wait for a donor, a process that feels completely out of my control. It’s a heavy burden that weighs on my body, mind, and spirit.

Please Help Save Breeden’s Life!
In 1998, Breeden got really sick, and it turned out to be complete kidney failure. Thankfully, her mom was able to donate a kidney, giving her a new lease on life. That transplant lasted an incredible 25 years, allowing her to live a relatively normal and healthy life. But now, that kidney has started to fail, and she has been back on dialysis.
