As many of you know, I’ve been actively searching for a living kidney donor. Over the past six months, my efforts have intensified, but I haven’t yet received the news that a donor has been found. If you’ve already taken steps to help, I want to sincerely thank you. I may not know everyone who has made this courageous decision on my behalf, but please know how deeply I appreciate it and admire your bravery.
If you’re still considering becoming my donor or would like to take the next steps to get tested, I encourage you to do so. The easiest way to get started is by filling out the contact form on my website, which I’ve linked in the comments below. Thank you for your support – it means the world to me!

Please SHARE – It’s been more than 2 years since I found out that my kidneys were failing and that I would need a kidney transplant. Asking for such a profound gift is incredibly difficult, and it has required me to be deeply vulnerable. However, the urgency of my situation leaves me no choice. My kidney disease is progressing, and I am facing constant health challenges. Every day without a transplant brings new struggles. Although I am on the waitlist for a deceased donor kidney, the reality is that there are over 100,000 people on that list, and it could take more than five years for me to receive a kidney. Time is not on my side. If you’re seeing this, please consider sharing my post. Your support in spreading the word can make an enormous difference. 

If you want to become my donor, please complete the contact form on my GiftWorks website: https://giftworksuuh.com/chrisb. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your compassion and support.

When I found out I made it on the transplant waitlist, I was overjoyed. I want to have my transplant surgery and get back to living my life. However, being on the waitlist for a deceased kidney transplant does not mean I’ll get transplanted quickly. Most patients, like me, wait 5 or more years. That’s a long time for someone to battle kidney disease, and so much can happen while I wait. This is why I am actively sharing my story. I’m hoping to find a living kidney donor who will see my story and choose to save my life. That person will give me the greatest gift imaginable and give me the chance to start my adult life, skateboard, and spend more quality time with my friends and family. You can help me today – please SHARE this post and my website:

Dear future kidney donor,

Something that I would like you to know is that my kidney failure diagnosis hit me just when my friends were stepping into adulthood and beginning their own journeys. I never got to experience this, and really look forward to beginning my adult life. Your generous donation will improve my health and quality of life, enabling me to dive back into the things I cherish the most, like hanging out with my family and hitting the skateboard. Thank you, future kidney donor, for your incredible kindness and for igniting hope within me. Your support means more to me than you know.

Living kidney donation extends beyond family ties. Anyone, including friends or even strangers, can potentially be a donor. It’s a unique opportunity to give the gift of life and profoundly impact someone’s journey to health and happiness.
