While not everyone can give in the way I need, there are still many ways you can help. Sharing this post is one of the most important things you can do. You might know someone who could be moved to help or someone who has the power to spread the word.
I want to express my deep gratitude to everyone who has shared my story and supported my search for a living donor. A special thank you goes out to those who have stepped forward—it truly means the world to me that you are even considering helping. I was diagnosed with kidney disease back in 1986, and my kidneys worked fine until 2022 when I had to start dialysis. Dialysis keeps me alive, but it’s like a full-time job that never gives me a break—it makes life feel anything but free.
