Life After Donation

In August I will donate a kidney to a close friend. I am 71 and, according to the myriad of tests I've had, am in good condition. I am a bit concerned about post surgery and would appreciate hearing from donors about any lifestyle changes they needed to make after surgery. Thanks!

It is wonderful that you are considering Living donation. Our website has just recently launched and people are still signing up. In the meantime, you can speak with a living donor though our NKF Peers support program at 855.653.7337
