Just interviewed with these two ladies about my kidney journey and the need for a new kidney donor even after having great success with my second transplant. It’s hard to imagine I’m back to square one but when you have friends like in your corner you’re already winning at life.

A HUGE thank you to for speaking with me today and please be sure to tune into for the full story and how you can help me on this journey. Grateful to still be here, and well enough to share my story. Hopefully it reaches the right eyes and ears and I’ll be blessed with a new kidney donor soon.

Last week wore a sign scouring the streets and gaining the attention of many New Yorkers. It said she “donated her kidney to a stranger and now he needs another one…ask me anything.” I’m so blessed by her constant devotion and support to this cause; she’s never given up on me and I’m eternally grateful. Here’s hoping that the right person saw it, and that I’m one step closer to finally finding the kidney that will get me back on stage.

Hello All! My friends started a GoFundMe to help offset some upcoming medical expenses while I can’t perform. With the catheter port linked to my heart for dialysis, it is too dangerous for me to dance so everything is on hold until I get a new kidney. [stinks a bit since I had some really awesome gigs lined up] So, while I wait, I want to pay-it-forward and kickstart the Shuriah Kidney Foundation which will provide a wide-range of access to important information, and hopefully one day soon an app to connect donors to patients struggling with rare kidney diseases.

If you or someone you know is interested in living donation, both of my donors are available to talk to and I’m happy to connect you to them. Also, if you’d like to consider donating, I would love your support!

My friends set up a GoFundMe to help offset some incoming medical bills now that I’m back on dialysis and the transplant list but more importantly, to help me kick start the Shuriah Kidney Foundation. I hope to raise enough funds to start this non-profit and pay-it-forward for others struggling with kidney disease.

If you want to help, please visit this link or the link in my bio and consider to donate. I can’t wait to see what the future holds and to be able to make a difference in the lives of others. 💚

As I sit down to write this post, I am filled with a mix of emotions; I am nervous, scared, and hopeful all at the same time. I am back to square one in need of a new kidney and though I’ve had two transplants now, the waiting game has always been a rollercoaster of emotions.

Throughout this journey, I have come to realize the incredible power of human connection. The support and love I have received from my family, friends, and even complete strangers has been nothing short of amazing.

When I was first diagnosed with kidney disease , I was overwhelmed with fear and uncertainty. But as I began to share my story with others, I was met with an outpouring of love and support. People I barely knew reached out to offer their help and encouragement, and I was reminded of the goodness that still exists in the world.

One thing that has become clear to me throughout this entire process is that we are all connected. We may come from different backgrounds, have different beliefs, and live in different parts of the world, but at our core, we are all human beings with the same basic needs and desires. The kindness and generosity I have experienced from others has been a great reminder of this fact, and it has given me strength and hope during the darkest moments.

So, while I may still be waiting for a new kidney, I am grateful for the incredible power of human connection and spirit. The connection I have with all of you - it is profound. It has shown me that we are never truly alone, and that there is always hope for a brighter tomorrow. I am grateful for the continued love and support of my family and friends, and for the kindness of strangers who have offered to help in any way they can. And I am hopeful, so hopeful; that very soon, I will find the right donor I need to finally start this new chapter in my life.
