Hello Friends,
I am raising funds again because I need another kidney transplant to survive. I am going to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota to be evaluated for a kidney transplant because at this time the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics will not put me on their transplant list. Unfortunately, that means I need to travel to Minnesota. I will need money to cover travel, lodging, food, etc.
My appointments are during the second week of July.
I will keep you all updated as I proceed through this process. I am also looking for living donors.
