Why I Walk

As you all know, after almost five years of struggle with kidney disease, I was recently a lucky kidney transplant recipient. My kidney (you may call her Frida Kidney) and I are recovering though it's been a roller coaster.

As an inauguration into the next phase of my life, I chose to I walk because too 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?
