I received the gift of life on August 21, 2024. In 2014, I was diagnosed with PKD and joined the transplant list in 2021. It was the selfless act of a friend, who donated on my behalf, and a paired exchange through the National Kidney Registry, that made this possible. I encourage all of you living with PKD to never lose hope—miracles do happen! The PKD Foundation was the first resource I turned to when I was diagnosed. It’s provided me with invaluable information on the progress to find a cure for this disease, as well as hope and inspiration to keep fighting.
