Help Angela Get a Second Chance at Life

Hello. My name is Angela Quitoriano. I'm 27 years old.

For quite some time, my family and I have been battling through immense health challenges. My father passed in Oct of 2021 and my oldest sister passed in Jan 2025.

For me, it all began with acute kidney injury in March of 2023, which then progressed into chronic kidney disease. My kidney function has not improved and my doctors have all strongly advised that I am in urgent need of a life-saving kidney transplant as soon as possible.

Despite my determination and physical perseverance, I also had to discontinue my college education and stop working due to the hardships of my own condition and of the conditions of some of my family members at home when they were still of this world... when we still had each other.

Getting regular dialysis treatments (usually three times a week for 4-hours at a time) is what's keeping me alive presently.

So... My family and I decided to jump on the journey of getting into the kidney transplant list at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) in Pittsburgh, PA. God-willing, maybe even a miracle...no matter how big or small.... can happen for me.

Any and every donation brings us one step closer to helping me get a second chance at life.

All of your love, support and contributions will go directly towards covering the costs of the kidney transplant evaluation, procedure(s), post-operative care, and ongoing medical expenses.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and I wish you all well in yours.

Angela Quitoriano
