I am in need of a kidney donor because I have polycystic kidney disease which is a hereditary disease within my family. I have been on dialysis since this Christmas and must remain on dialysis until a kidney donor is found. My husband wanted to donate one of his kidneys but was not suitable and my two step daughters are still of child bearing age and in the U.K. they don’t like to accept kidneys in that situation. I would encourage everyone to consider donating their organs in the event of their death as this can be a life line for many other people in my situation and an act of kindness that can arise from an untimely death.
