Donations to help my dad looking for a kidney

Donation protected
When I was a sophomore in high school I noticed that my dad was sick. He has type two diabetes and I had known that at the time but I had never thought anything of it because he always had it under control. The week before Christmas he brought himself to the hospital and nurses told him they were shocked he drove himself there. His blood pressure was so high. That week they diagnosed him with kidney disease and everything about our family changed. A year passed and my dad injected himself with insulin everyday. I watched him get through it with a smile on his face. At the beginning of my senior year my dad was hospitalized a second time. His kidney function had decreased tremendously. I remember feeling helpless. A few months after his hospitalization, the doctors told him he needed a kidney and pancreas transplant and that he needed to go on dialysis. My parents visited doctors and he was put on the transplant list and he started dialysis. The night before Easter my dad was hospitalized for a third time and they put stints in his legs to help with his blood circulation. He still might have to get part of his toes removed on one of his feet. Despite everything, my dad gets out of bed and works to support our family, making sure that my siblings have the best life possible. My dad needs all the help he can get. Any prayers and support that you are willing to give is appreciated. ❤️
