O- blood type

Hi, I'm Bridgette. I'm 30 years old and have been dealing with kidney failure since I was 19. Had a transplant in 2012 but rejected after a year and needed it removed. Started dialysis again in 2014 and still am currently on it. I'm O- blood type. Trying to get relisted.

Hi Bridgette, what was the match with the transplanted kidney? Was it a living donor?
