So many dont even know this exists and it's the most amazing thing ever. I helped as a volunteer at both the British Transplant games in Newport in July and the World Transplant Games in Newcastle in August. I've been doing home haemo for 6 months now and I had the most amazing experience at the Freeman hosptial which helped me do dialysis whilst in Newcastle. This disease is not going to control me, whilst I wait on dialysis until I have a transplant and then I hope to compete in the British Transplant games in Coventry in 2020 and then hoping to qualify for the World in 2021. Why not join me.
The World games happens every two years so the next one is in Houston in 2021.
Here are the highlights from the World Transplant Games. The song that is playing during the video was written by Beccy Owen especially for the games.
Let's keep spreading the word about the need to have that all important conversation with your family and friends about organ donation, as even with the new law coming in next year your next of kin will still have the final say.
The Transplant games is an amazing recognition of the gift of life.
