Why I Walk

In 2010 and 2012, I experienced kidney failure, which caused me to need dialysis. Doctors were amazed at my recovery and coined the phrase, "Lori, you are a walking miracle."  I walk because too many families (like mine) are coping with this devastating chronic illness, and thousands more will face an unexpected kidney disease diagnosis in the year to come.

I walk to support the life-changing 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?
