Prayers Chris gets the call soon!

March is Kidney Month.

For some, it’s just another month.

For others… it’s hope.

Right now, someone is finishing dialysis.
Someone is watching their phone light up.
Someone is praying this is their month.

A month for a call.
A month for a donor.
A month for a second chance at life.

Kidney disease is often silent.
But awareness is not.
Action is not.
Hope is not.

This month, we educate.
We advocate.
We stand with every kidney warrior still fighting.

If you believe no one should wait alone,
Share this.

💚 Someone is praying this is their month.

Donate a kidney!

Currently, 37 million Americans are living with chronic kidney disease—patients searching for answers, families facing uncertainty, and caregivers doing everything they can to protect the people they love. This month, all gifts are being matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $37,000, in honor of the 37 million Americans affected by kidney disease. Let’s fuel the future of kidney health: https://bit.ly/4tWrysf

We hope everyone stayed safe during the storm!

On Sunday afternoon, Chris was getting the snowblower ready but couldn’t get it to start. I tried to fix it myself — thinking I could handle it — and ended up with gas all over my hands instead. With so much snow coming and Chris unable to shovel, we started to panic a little, especially since I still had to leave for work.

Thankfully, there are truly kind and generous people in this world. One of Chris’s friends came to help plow us out, and it was such a blessing for our family. Having our cars cleared right now is more important than ever, because the call could come at any time.

We are still waiting and staying hopeful. Please continue sharing Chris’s story. He is fully ready to receive a kidney from either a living or deceased donor, and we are so grateful for all the support, prayers, and kindness everyone has shown us!

💚Still waiting on a kidney… it doesn’t have to be a deceased donor. If you are in the position to donate look into it. No commitments and it can be completely anonymous.

💚 Chris carried a little more light in his step today after what could be his last clinical, holding onto hope that this kidney failure journey may finally be nearing its end. Hope feels closer than it has in a long time—still a waiting game, but praying it’s sooner rather than later.
