Hi! I see familiar faces and new ones, too!
I donated a kidney 5 years ago this July, to someone I didn't know. I started the midwest's first kidney chain- I did not know it at the time!
My recipient is doing well, as is the rest of the crew (as far as I know!) We did have a loss, one of our recipients sadly had a heart attack and passed away a couple of years ago. The donors I am in touch with are well also. I donated at the U of MN and had such a good experience.
My husbands aunt is in need of a kidney right now. Our cousin will be getting tested to see if she is a match or not, and hopefully others in the family will also.
Thanks to all who consider donating and to those who have!!!
