This journey has been filled with challenges, from dealing with the exhaustion and limitations of dialysis to missing out on so many activities I once loved. But through it all, I know that the more people who hear my story, the closer I get to finding a match. Every person who shares my message, whether through social media, word of mouth, or simply passing it along to someone who might be able to help, brings me one step closer to the lifesaving kidney I need.
I’ve often hoped that a family member or close friend would be able to donate, but unfortunately, they don’t always meet the necessary criteria. It’s disheartening, especially when kidney disease has already drained so much of my energy. Also, it’s hard on family to learn that they can’t donate – often times for medical reasons.
I’m currently seeking a living donor who can help me live a fuller life. While the need may seem daunting, the truth is that any act of kindness, no matter how small, can create a ripple of hope.
I want to take a moment to sincerely thank everyone who has shared my story and helped spread the word about my urgent need for a living kidney donor. Your support means more than I can express, and I’m especially grateful to those who have taken the incredible step of exploring the possibility of donation. Just knowing that you’re considering it gives me so much hope.
