I’ve been living with kidney disease for many years, and every day brings its challenges. I’m hopeful for a future where I can regain energy, spend more time with my family, and return to some of the things I love—like teaching and maybe even volunteering again. The best chance for that future is a living kidney donor.
One of the most amazing things I’ve learned about living donation is that you can live a healthy life with just one kidney, and over time, that kidney will grow to take over the full function needed for your body. It’s incredible how the body adapts to provide such a profound gift. For me, this gift would mean life-changing health, the ability to be more active, and the chance to see my daughter become a mom and help care for my grandchild. https://giftworksuuh.com/kathiec/
But the beauty of living donation is that it’s not just about me. The donor also receives something priceless—a sense of purpose, the knowledge that they have truly saved a life, and a connection that lasts forever. It is one of the most generous and meaningful acts a person can take.
If you or someone you know is interested in learning more, please visit my GiftWorks website and complete the short, confidential contact form. A Living Donor Navigator—someone who has donated a kidney themselves—will reach out to answer questions, provide guidance, and be a confidant through the process. https://giftworksuuh.com/kathiec/
Your willingness to consider this gift could change my life. I am deeply grateful for your support.
