#esrd — Public Fediverse posts

Waiting for a kidney transplant is exhausting, and some days it feels like life is on hold. When my posts stop being shared, it’s easy to feel invisible. If you can, please consider sharing my National Kidney Registry profile. One share could reach the person who saves my life. Thank you to everyone who has cared, checked in, or shared. ❤️ https://nkr.org/PZG643 #KidneyDonation #LivingDonor #ESRD #DonateLife

Not a political post—this is personal. I’m currently searching for a living kidney donor. If you’re unable to help, that’s completely okay—please keep scrolling. If you are able, sharing this post could help it reach someone who may be a match or willing to donate. My goal is simple: to get back to truly living, not just existing. Thank you for reading, sharing, or considering.

My live donor just backed out, and I’m heartbroken—but not giving up. I’m still searching for a living or deceased kidney donor. I’m registered with the National Kidney Registry and praying for a second chance at life. Please consider sharing my story or registering to donate: 👉 https://www.nkr.org/PZG643 💜

Friends, I want to live a life unbound—free from the dialysis machine that keeps me alive. I post about this often because I’m not just asking—I’m pleading for a second chance. A second birthday. If you can’t donate, please share. 💜

Face (kinda) reveal, lol. This horse artist is currently undergoing dialysis, woo! Second time tonight and it's going surprisingly well.

For those who don't know me well, I am an ESRD (End stage renal disease) patient whose kidneys have failed. I have to do dialysis 3x a week now, but the good news is that it has a significantly positive effect and is keeping me alive.

I'm working to get onto the kidney transplant list, and I'm hoping to find a living donor that will allow me to function normally in the world again. Until then, travel and life is on hold while I undergo dialysis and do my best to survive.

Thanks so much to all my friends and family who make this fight possible, I love each and every one of you.

What’s the risk of #ESRD after kidney donation?

Well, first acknowledge there is a lot we don‘t know…
