Help with Kidney Transplant
Donation protected
November 24, 2018
My family and I want to thank everyone for their prayers and for your donations. Finally after so long of waiting and praying I got my kidney. I was able to get it on Wednesday a day before Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for! It is the best Thanksgiving ever! And everything is going good so far, but I still need to raise money for the medical bills and my medication. Anything helps. God bless you all.
Hi everyone, so my life took a turn 5 years ago when I was diagnosed with renal failure, you see i was born with premature kidneys and they never grew. As an adult I got high blood pressure and that made my kidneys give out completely. I remember I got really sick that I went to the E.R. That's the day the doctors let me know everything. I had to make a decision quickly either to start dialysis or die in a few months. Ever since then I've been doing my dialysis at home every night and got on a transplant list. My only hope is the transplant, because life expectancy on dialysis is 5-10 years. I have faith that one day I will get a transplant, and when that day comes I will need 20% of the cost since my insurance only covers 80% of it. I am asking for any help from anyone. I am O negative but anyone from any blood group can help be a donor because there is a cross match program that if I bring in someone that is not my blood type they can cross match to another person that may have someone that doesn't match them but does to me. Thank you for reading this and sharing my story. Anything will help including your prayers, May God Bless You all for your help. Thank you, from Robert and my family.
