Our story living with ESRD

Hello, my husband was diagnosed with IgA nephropathy about 7 years ago, was told he had about 5 years until possible kidney failure, the Dr was right on timing. May of 2023 he was hospitalized with ESRD, we have been to MUSC and Mayo Clinic to begin the journey to getting a transplant. It is nice to find this site to hear others and hopefully be an encouragement to those dealing with kidney disease.
