Four for Kidneys

Four for Kidneys!

This October, our whole family is taking part in the Red Socks Challenge, together we are aiming to cover 200kms!

Kidney disease is something that has become very personal to our family. I was diagnosed with FSGS in 2022 and currently have around 30% kidney function. I’m also taking part in a clinical trial at Royal North Shore Hospital.

Our son Archer was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome before his 5th birthday. After experiencing frequent relapses, he needed infusion treatment to deplete his B cells as part of his treatment.

Our family has benefited enormously from the support provided by the kidney community. We have particularly loved the Es-Capers Events, which have given us opportunities to have fun as a family while also meeting and connecting with other families living with kidney disease.

We’re taking on the Red Socks Challenge to raise awareness, support kidney research and help other families affected by kidney disease. Every kilometre we complete and every donation we receive will help shine a light on the impact of kidney disease and the importance of supporting those living with it.

Thank you for supporting our family and this important cause!
