Happy anniversaries! livingdonorsonline.org/ldosmf/index... #livingkidneydonor #livingliverdonor #bonemarrowdonor
Highly recommend! You will infinitely improve someone else's quality of life while not affecting your own life one iota (except, of course, for the permanent "feel good" feeling you'll have).
And even if you're not an exact match, there's "paired exchange"

This is one example of a proposed clinical pathway for a 1-day evaluation of living donor candidates.
The #livingkidneydonor evaluation process is lengthy and complicated, but can be made more efficient with expected improvements in patient outcomes and experiences.

I became a #LivingKidneyDonor on Monday. 3 people were part of our paired exchange and will receive kidneys and live healthier lives. You or someone you know may qualify. www.livingdonor.org
Figure 2. Encountered genetic conditions in the Canadian LKD programs are represented on the x-axis. Bars represent the number of centers that have encountered the genetic condition. Bar colors represent the responses regarding LKD evaluation protocol status (orange: response as no protocol—beige: response as having a protocol).
Assessing #livingkidneydonor suitability via #genetictesting may improve personalized management, risk assessment, and inform the safety of donation. #AskRenal @mcgilldom.bsky.social @csnscn.bsky.social @cjkhd.bsky.social

On the other side of my surgery, so I’m now officially a #LivingKidneyDonor
You or someone you know might qualify. Change a life for the better. We need more of that right now.

Woke up a few minutes before my alarm.
Drinking apple juice pre-op, as per instructions.
I guess they don’t want people showing up for surgery all “hangry.”

Alarm is set for 5 AM
Taxi is coming at 5:45 to take me to the hospital for my kidney donation.
I’m a little too excited to sleep.
But I’ll get about a 2.5 hour nap in the morning

My long journey to become a #LivingKidneyDonor is finally coming to an end. Flying to Vancouver BC today for surgery Monday.
I’m thankful that, after an extensive testing process, I’ve been approved to be a #LivingKidneyDonor.
Surgery late February.
Please consider looking into the process. You will improve someone’s life immeasurably.
Allison Kwilos, a teacher at Forestville Elementary School in Chautauqua County, decided to become a #LivingKidneyDonor after learning of Katie Marsh's need for a #Transplant. The Dunkirk Observer has their story: www.observertoday.com/news/top-sto...
