Dear Friends and Family,
My wife, Cecil Nelson, is a courageous woman battling a deteriorating kidney disease at the young age of 30 years old. Cecil has only 40 percent function left in both of her kidneys. As a result, she started hemodialysis three days a week for 3 months starting September of 2012. Fortunately her doctor was able to switch her to peritoneal dialysis done at home each night for a period of 9 hours. Though it sounds grueling, it made it possible for Cecil to be home with me and our 3 year old son, Leematthew. After extensive testing, doctors determined her only real shot at a long and healthy life is to receive a kidney transplant as soon as possible.
It does not seem so long ago that a family member introduced Cecil and I by internet. For about a year, our long distance relationship gave us the time to get to know each other before meeting in person. I visited Cecil in the Philippines where she was born and raised. Not long after my trip, Cecil moved to the United States and we started our family. Our son, Leematthew is our pride and joy. He helps Cecil remain strong with each “I love you, Mommyâ€.
