Description

My Road to a Gift of Life begins in my nephrologist's examination room at the Cleveland Clinic. It is here that I learn that my kidneys are declining and approaching dangerous levels of failure. I will have to go on dialysis or have a kidney transplant soon. The road I will travel is filled with potholes and detours along the way.

An unexpected major surgery, disappointing results from a living donor, and issues with the new kidney were some of the challenges I was faced with. My Road to a Gift of Life ends with a surprise meeting and an emotional farewell.
