Hello Jeremiah! Good job getting into this community so you can talk to others just like you. I was fortunate to find an acceptable living kidney donor, but it did take some time. It's a process that you need to commit to, that is telling your story and getting other people to help you spread the word. What are you right now to find potential donors? How are you sharing your story? Can you share an example of your story on on HealthUnlocked, so we can see if we can offer you some ideas in the way it's being communicated? Do you have friends and family members who are also sharing your story? There are a lot of things you can do to get your story out there. Tell us more and in the meantime, you may want to check out this book written for people just like you who are hoping to find a donor: findingkidneydonors.com
