Why I Walk

Originally it was to support a friend whos son has suffered from Kidney disease and has already received a donor kidney and now it is failing also and he is back on dialysis and trying to get back on the donor list for another kidney.
In this process I realized how many of my family and friends are also suffering from this disease.  My mother had to have a kidney removed and lived a lot of her adult life with only 1 kidney.  Several of my friends have suffered or have family dealing with this disease.
This disease effects all ages and 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?
