KIDNEY & UROLOGY WALK THE WALK....
As some of you already know, my FH donated one of his kidneys to his best friend 2 years ago. His best friend was going through daily treatments of dialysis and FH was by his side through it all. After seeing what his best friend had to go through, FH got himself tested to see if he would be a match for a kidney transplant. He was astounded to find out that they were a match! A few weeks later the surgery was performed and it was a succes.
Since then, we have been participating in the annual 'Walk the Walk' to raise awareness. If anyone would like to sponsor our group and make a donation, please FM me for more details.

From kidney stones and urinary tract infections to prostate cancer and chronic kidney failure, diseases of the kidney and urinary tract affect over 70 million Americans each year.
The Kidney & Urology Foundation of America, Inc. holds numerous public education campaigns annually to raise awareness of the critical need to address these illnesses. Our ultimate goal is to take all kidney and urinary tract diseases from treatment to cure, and to see that no one ever has to wait for lifesaving medical care, particularly organ transplants.
How can you help combat kidney disease and prostate cancer?
