Why I Walk

I walk because I have PKD, Polycystic Kidney Disease, and have been on the transplant wait list for 3 years.  I'm actively seeking a living donor.  A living donor transplant gives me the best opportunity to live an active lifestyle and return to the things I love. 

I along with many families (like mine) are coping with this devastating chronic illness, and thousands more will face an unexpected kidney disease diagnosis in the year to come.

I walk to support the lifechanging work of the National Kidney Foundation:
     - To ensure that families will have a place to turn when they need answers.
     - To keep up the fight for policy changes to protect kidney patients and living donors.
     - To drive innovation in transplantation and get more loved ones off the kidney transplant waitlist.

Are you with me?

Please consider supporting my efforts with a generous donation.
