Letter: Thank you for supporting Living Kidney Donorship

Share this story

Dear family, friends, neighbors, community members and businesses, it is extremely humbling and somewhat embarrassing to see my Kidney4Chris.org signs up all over town, but I wanted to let you all know how much I appreciate you rallying around me in my quest to find a living kidney donor.

Being a pretty private person, dealing with inherited polycystic kidney disease has been extremely challenging for me and my family, as you can imagine. When I found out that 70% of the patients on the kidney transplant waiting list have not asked one family member, friend or community member to consider becoming a living kidney donor for them, I knew I had to speak up for myself and become a spokesperson for the others to help educate the public concerning Living Kidney Donorship. 

Again, thank you for all of your kind words and prayers.
