Support Anthony Gordy's Kidney Transplant Journey

My Story

Living Kidney Donor

Hello family, friends, and those I have yet to meet. My name is Anthony Gordy, but everyone calls me Tony. I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1955. I worked for The City Philadelphia Sanitation Department for 40 year and retired in 2012. My wife Annette and I relocated to Lakeland and have since become Floridians!

Enjoying retired life with my family and friends; has been so fulfilling but unfortunately, I have been diagnosed with kidney disease that has worsened progressively. To the point that my kidneys are not working well enough to keep me alive. I am getting regular dialysis treatments, usually three times a week for four hours at a time to help my kidneys do their job and keep me alive, but I am in need of a kidney transplant. A kidney from a living donor would be the gift that keeps on giving and allows me to continue living.

This has been and continues to be an expensive journey and as proud as I am, I realize that I can't do this alone and I need help. No donation is too small, every consideration helps and is greatly appreciated! Thank you for caring and giving!

Humbly and Gratefully,

Tony
