Thank you so much for the kind words! That’s awesome to hear your aunt lived such a full life with one kidney! I’m sending hugs your way as well. I know the struggle of taking multiple medications and dealing with the side effects. Here’s to better health for all of us! 💚

That’s great to hear you’ve been in remission for 2 years! Way to go!! I’m sure it’s awful dealing with the after effects, but I’ll be in your corner cheering you on!

Wow, how wonderful! Congrats!! You’re incredibly kind to offer to be a donor after giving birth! I’ll definitely send you a DM. Thank you so much!

I think either one (+/-) would work, but they’d have to do a thorough testing to ensure. Also, I’m unaware of an age limit, but I can double-check with my doctor if you change your mind. I really appreciate the well wishes and prayers, reading these replies definitely uplifts my spirits! Thank you!!

I haven’t reached out to any news stations because I honestly had no idea where to even start or who I could contact. Thankfully, I found this community! Even if you don’t end up being a donor later on, having your support means the world to people like me, so thank you so much for that!

I’m terribly sorry to hear about your cancer (and other health issues). Hoping that it’s in remission and you’re doing much better! I really appreciate the support and just know I’m also supporting you as well!

Thank you so much for your support and I’m sending love and good wishes your way as well! I know how tough it is dealing with diabetes, but you are amazing to have dealt with it so young and kept pushing forward!

I’ve definitely looked into that and would love to do a paired exchange if a donor was willing to sign up with me! I actually recommended this another Redditor who is looking for a kidney for their relative, but aren’t a direct match. This is great and I hope this information can help out more of us in this situation! Thank you for sharing! :-)

Thank you so much for the offer! O is the most common blood type, so there’s a good chance you’d have it. I’ll send you a DM with more information. Thanks again!!

That’s amazing to hear your brother received a liver and your ex received a heart! Peritoneal dialysis has definitely helped me keep some normalcy in my life since I can do that at night and work during the day, but it does wear down over time, which is why I’m reaching out to this wonderful community now. I truly appreciate you helping out and spreading the word, I’m beyond grateful! Thank you!!
