Why to walk (or virtual walk or just donate):

We 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 was born with one kidney that isn't functioning at 100%.  I spent my first 4 months since birth at Phoenix Children's Hospital, PCH.  I am currently at home on dialysis waiting for the time when I will be eligible for my kidney transplant at PCH.  Your support will help me and other families get the kidney care we need. 

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?  You can come out to the walk, do a virtual walk in my honor or just donate to my efforts.

Please consider supporting my efforts with a generous donation.  Thank you so much!
