My Red Socks Run for Kidney Health

This October, I’m going to walk for my son. Watching the impact kidney disease is not only having on him, but also his new family, is overwhelming to say the least.

We hear of treatments like transplants but have no idea of what someone has to go through before that happens.

Simple things like a long cold drink on a warm day is out of the question or it can be as complex as infection, illness, threat to life and everything in between

Taking into account the ethical conflict of wanting a donor kidney but the cost another family has to pay for them to get one, it’s so very challenging.

It’s just not that simple. There is so much involved, so much more than we can ever imagine until you see someone you love with every cell in your body live this.

I, any parent, any family member of a person living with kidney disease or the patient themselves will be grateful for every cent donated.

If you are not in a position to donate please help to make others aware of the challenges these people face.

🙏🏻
