Why I Walk
I've been working w/ Nephrologists and their patients for 20 years. I've met some incredibly amazing patients and their families, some who have become lifelong personal friends. I get to experience the joys and the sorrows of these patients. I do everything in my power when I can to make sure our patients get the care they need as timely as possible in our clinics. I train and educate staff to provide the same sensitive care even if it's just in returning calls and refilling medications. I'm walking and encouraging others to join or to donate to give these patients and their families the only thing I can, support. I walk because too many families 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?
