NY My wife needs a Kidney, please help...

Greetings fellow Rotorheads, I'm going to keep this short & simple. So I decided to share this with you guys in hopes of getting positive energy & support.

My wife has been on dialysis for over 3yrs & is in need of a Kidney. Where located in NYC & her blood type is O+. We've found 2 potential donors through my Facebook page which I'm going to ask you all to PLEASE "like" & "share" but neither of the transplants went through for reasons I'd rather not get into....

Here's the link guys, again all I ask is to please like & share it. Organ donation is currently playing a major role in my wife's life & I, this is a critical situation & it kills me to see her deteriorating as the time goes by. Thanks for taking the time to read, it's really appreciated.....

*My apologies for posting in this section of the forum, I really didn't know where to go with this....

Seeing as how you own an FB, I moved this here. I considered the lounge, but that was asking for trouble.

If anyone has an issue with this thread being here, please PM me.

Best of luck to you and your wife

Your wife and I have the same blood type O+. I can donate blood but I have been told that it must be used within 3 days. If you can make the arrangement, delivery wise from red cross or something, please let me know. My prayers are with you also.

As ignorant as I feel about this, I do not know my blood type. If it was a match, I would be glad to if expenses were covered seeing as how I have my own new family to support. Heck I may be about to enter a custody battle, I do not know.

My daughter in law had kidney problems I saw the same thing happen 10 years ago . I saw her go down hill for a long time ,. finally a young man from British Columbia donated one to her . It took some time before things changed around but finally she is totally functional and living a productive and healthy life , she is actually getting married in the spring and looking forward to having children . I do know how you feel , its hard some days . Keep your hopes up and focus on good things it helps to talk to people . Gerald m.

Most hospitals in Cali get donors thru "One Legacy." I dont know the procedure, I just know about them as my son is a nurse and One Legacy and and my employer are located in the same building in downtown LA.

I'm A pos, but you reminded me to go do my normal donations. Ever since I joined the Army I have been donating semi regularly.

I wish you and your wife the best. Stay positive! (no pun intended)
