I'm sorry to hear this. My prayers this year are for all of us waiting for our loved ones to get transplants and that more living healthy donors step forward. How much time has she been waiting?

Dear sweet husband who is trying to help his PKD wife who is struggling right now. Does she already have an approved donor? If not, what is she doing to actively seek a donor while she waits for a deceased donor's kidney? Please tell us more while she waits. Also, if she's not already receiving "mentoring" from NKF, let's get her set up! To learn more about free mentoring: Call 855-653-7337 (855-NKF-PEER) or email nkfpeers@kidney.org. By the way, I'm a mentor for NKF and I'd be happy to speak to her. I also have PKD/PLD and I'm a successful transplant recipient. My team and I developed strategies to communicate donor needs and expand opportunities. Check out my book for finding kidney donors at this website: FindingKidneyDonors.com

Your wife is not alone on this journey; and thanks to you, she has an advocate at the helm and a lot of folks on this site that are cheering her on. Let us know how we can help!
