Dear Friends, Family and Community:
Many of you know that I am suffering from end stage renal failure. I have been on dialysis three days every week for the past 10 years. While this is keeping me alive, it has truly taken away my independence. My doctors at Swedish Hospital Medical Center have told me that my only option is a life-saving kidney transplant.
I am a 63 year old mother of 4, grandmother of 8 and great-grandmother of 2. I am truly a person who loves life. Prior to my illness, I worked full time and was involved in my community. Since diagnosis and being on dialysis, I have been unable to work and do many things I have always been able to do. I look forward to going back to work, becoming involved in many things and enjoying all of you, my family and friends. I have finally made it the top of the national transplant waiting list and hoping to receive my transplant soon.
