Phil McMican is a loving and giving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, who is in desperate need of a kidney transplant. In spite of his illness, Phil continues to exude determination and a positive attitude. He is beloved by his family and in his community as a patient and soft spoken man of great faith.
When Phil was twenty years old, he suffered from severe smoke inhalation as the result of a fire in his home. Over time, his lungs were destroyed, and in 2001, Phil was the recipient of a double lung transplant. The anti-rejection drugs to save his new lungs destroyed his kidneys. Phil has been receiving dialysis for eighteen months and needs a kidney transplant. He is listed at two transplant centers on a waiting list and is also waiting for news on a potential live donor. Phil and his family are looking forward to the day that they are no longer tethered to the dialysis machine. They are hopeful that a donor will soon be found.

We are waiting patiently for a kidney for Phil. I know it’s all in God’s plan and timing. God Please hear me now and send a kidney. There has to be someone out there that has 0- or 0+ willing to see if they are a match. I hear they are doing surgery everyday transplanting kidneys. We just need one : ) Phil has been a trooper doing dialysis every night at home. I know it is difficult at times but he knows a kidney is coming soon.
