Why I Walk

I walk because two years ago I was diagnosed with kidney cancer. My right kidney was taken out in February of 2022. My left kidney has its own set of issues. I am monitored often with scans and blood work, which is just a part of my life now. I have sought out consults from nephrologists, urologists, oncologists and nutritionists. I try to inform myself on all aspects of kidney disease. By walking and raising funds, I hope to help others that need help more than me. If you can, please consider donating to my team. It is so so appreciated, from the bottom of my heart! xxxo

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 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?

Please consider supporting my efforts with a generous donation.
