LIVING Kidney DONOR NEEDED

Living Kidney Donor Needed

Hello,

My name is Jewell Akins, and I am hoping to find a kidney donor. Chronic kidney disease is a problem that I have been dealing with for 10 years. Unfortunately, over time my kidney disease has continued to progress to the extent that I will need a kidney transplant. The effects and treatments required to combat it have been a constant stress on my mind, body, and soul.

Since Feb 2024, I’ve been doing dialysis, frequent doctor visits, and experiencing declining health, while still working to support myself and my family. This treatment often leaves me feeling tired and makes it difficult to do the things I enjoy like camping, traveling, visiting family.

I look forward to the day that I can get my normal life back. It would be a blessing to be able to travel more, spend time with family and enjoy life without the constant concerns for my health. After my transplant, I look forward to having more energy and enjoying life again.

It can often take years to get a match for a deceased donor organ. I am hoping to find a living donor in order to benefit my health and improve my quality of life. A living donor transplant would mean so much to me because I want to be in my children and grandchildren’s lives for as long as possible. I would be grateful if you could help me find a match by getting tested or sharing this information with your own network of friends, family and community.

I sincerely thank you,

Jewell Akins
