My daughter, Samantha (Sam) Thomas needs a lifesaving kidney transplant. Samantha was a very active young girl who loved to run track, play baseball and basketball, and was always on the go. At the young age of 9, we noticed a change in Samantha’s health and her overall skin tone. In 2001, after taking her from one physician to the next, Samantha was finally diagnosed with Lupus, a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when your body’s immune system attacks your own tissues and organs. Inflammation caused by lupus can affect many different body systems — including your joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs. In Samantha’s case, the lupus attacked her kidneys and caused her to go into end-stage-renal disease. She has now been on dialysis for over three years, and without a lifesaving kidney transplant, Samantha’s time will eventually run out.
Despite her poor health, Samantha has a positive attitude and even works a part time job. She is blessed with two young children – a beautiful daughter and son, and Samantha wants nothing more than to see her children grow into adulthood. She desperately needs your help.
