Why I Walk

I walk because too many families (like mine) have had to cope with this devastating chronic illness, and thousands more will face an unexpected kidney disease diagnosis in the year to come.

Thanks to my cousin Dean, I am living life after transplant and it is glorious! As a NC Board Member for NKF, my specific area of interest is advocating for living donors. Obviously, that really hits home for me.

I walk to support the lifechanging work of the National Kidney Foundation:
     - To ensure that families will have a place to turn when they need answers.
     - To keep up the fight for policy changes to protect kidney patients and living donors.
     - To drive innovation in transplantation and get more loved ones off the kidney transplant waitlist.

Are you with me?
