The National Kidney Foundation estimates that 350,000 people in the US have end-stage renal disease and about 67,000 people die of kidney failure every year. In the year 2000, 47,000 people in the US were waiting for a kidney transplant. The lack of organs available for transplantation is a serious problem. By signing a donor card, an individual indicates their wish to be a donor. It is important to share your wishes with your next of kin as they will be asked prior to a donation.

About Me
- donatelife
- Columbus, Ohio, United States
- Neal was diagnosed with end stage renal disease at the age of 18. He was put on the transplant list and received a transplant after 3 years on peritoneal dialysis. He received a cadaver kidney that had been on ice for quite some time. The kidney did not begin working immediately. The doctor felt the life of the kidney would be 8-10 years. Neals' transplant rejected in late November of 2006 (a life just over 8 years). Since then he has been on hemodialysis 3 days a week for 4 hours each time. Due to Neal's young age, the doctor encouraged him to find a live donor. A live donor transplant can last almost twice the time of a cadaver transplant and could occur quickly, rather than waiting for the cadaver transplant. Unfortunately his immediate family members are not matches. Luckily a good friend was a match and began the testing process. Neal and Michele met Ryan in 1998. Vacations, birthdays, weddings and soon to be births have been shared between the couples. Many people spend their lives searching for friends like this.

Since when has posting a picture of a piece of crap sitting atop a helpless structure of lumber been considered tasteful. Keep the tactless posts out of here!

Is it a rule that all Browns fans have to keep their Caps Lock on at all time?
Typical behavior of people who eat dog food.
