Welcome to my website!
I have once again been fortunate enough to receive a matching and functioning kidney. This time the kidney came as a result of waiting on the transplant list. The donated kidney could only have come from someone with an O blood type, so finding a perfect match was something I could only hope for. Thankfully, I can finally say that my hope and patience has paid off!
After previously receiving a successful kidney transplant from an incredibly giving woman, I suffered an unexpected viral infection that damaged most of my restored kidney function. As a result, I spent the past several years on daily peritoneal dialysis and was back on the kidney transplant list. I’m so grateful that I have been given another chance to return to a somewhat normal day to day life.
