Donation protected
CLICK ON THE ABOVE VIDEO LINK TO LEAR WHY I AM DANCING FOR A KIDNEY I  need your help to find a living kidney donor. I am experiencing  kidney failure   due to kidney cancer which required partial removal of one of my kidneys, leaving my other kidney unable to do the job.  The choice of obtaining a living kidney donor  will assure  a longer and better quality of life Continue to scroll down to read the rest of my story  ...and Please click on the video below to hear and see my story Thank you with appreciation and gratitude for your support      This GO FUND ME established in anticipation that a living donor will once again step forward to provide me a life saving kidney without which, being at end stage chronic renal failure( level 5) I will be on dialysis the rest of his life, Dialysis is a debilitating 3 times a week 4 hours session during which time, my blood is being cleaned by a machine. The statistic for death from infection and other causes resulting from this process is dramatic and haunting. How many years can a person live after kidney transplant? ....the average life expectancy for a patient on dialysis is generally five years. On the other hand, patients who receive a kidney transplant typically live longer than those who stay on dialysis. A living donor kidney functions, on average, 12 to 20 years, and a deceased donor kidney from 8 to 12 years. Though my insurance will pay many of the expenses of a transplant (surgery, testing), there are numerous costs that are not covered., particularly for the donor who will travel, to be in the hospital and in recovery, taking time away from work and family. The donor's daily living expenses, food, lost wages, housing, bills/mortgage payments etc. still need to be made. This is one of the reasons this GoFundMe has been established, to help defray the expenses of providing for the living donor who altruistically has come forward to give life to another person whom they most likely do not even know! NOTE : FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY...in lieu of donating... PLEASE Post and share on your Facebook page. Should you you have any questions or know someone who MIGHT consider being my kidney donor,..
