Hello my name is Antonio Manzano, I am 30 years old. I’ve been on dialysis for a year and am currently on the transplant list to receive a kidney. The waiting period could be anywhere from one to three years, and when the time comes, I will need to cover a copay of $15,000 in order to move forward.

I was diagnosed with kidney failure shortly after losing my mom to the same illness, and this journey has been both emotional and challenging. On top of that, I am a proud father to an 8-year-old son. My biggest wish is to regain my health so I can keep up with him, play sports together, and most importantly, be there to watch him grow.

I am doing everything I can to prepare for the transplant, and I am reaching out for any help or support along the way. Thank you in advance for help.
