Last week I became a new ambassador for the NKF. I am really happy to help any way I can. 18 years ago (1999) I received my "gift of life", my new kidney. Everything is working well and I continue to have fantastic kidney function. I had strep, followed by nephritis as a child and 30 years later I was in kidney failure. I was diagnosed with focal-segmental glomerulous sclerosis (FSGS).
I look forward to working with all of you.
