Aviva recounts her journey from learning about kidney donation at a community awareness event, facilitated by the organization Renewal, to ultimately deciding to donate her kidney. This decision was inspired by a profound belief that we are given two kidneys for a reason, and the 'extra' is not ours to keep but to share. She navigates through the emotional and physical process of kidney donation, including the rigorous screening and the surgery itself, leading to a successful transplant in May 2019. Aviva's story highlights the incredible support of Renewal, an organization that aids Jewish kidney donors and recipients, but also serves non-Jewish individuals. Despite facing personal challenges and recovery post-surgery, Aviva's tale is one of resilience, gratitude, and the unanticipated joy of giving. Her experience has not only affected her recipient and his family but has also inspired others within and outside her community to consider kidney donation. Moreover, Aviva's openness about her journey serves as a beacon of hope and encouragement, stressing the importance of spreading awareness and the undeniable fulfillment that comes from saving a life. About Our Guest: Aviva Breda is a 42 year old mother of three. She lives in Teaneck NJ where she runs her own business, Aviva Breda Consulting, specializing in personal shopping and style consulting. When not working or busy with her family, Aviva spends her time reading, taking barre classes, and speaking about the importance of kidney donation awareness.

A Calling To Find A Kidney Donor For All In Need Darcy Gibson and Andy Johnson discuss the challenges faced by kidney transplant recipients and their families. In this episode they shared their experiences highlighting the importance of storytelling and education when raising awareness about kidney disease, emphasizing the impact of personal stories on building empathy and creating a sense of community. Episode Highlights: Andi Johnson introduces Darci Gibson and the non-profit organization “Off The List”. “Off the List” aims to support individuals on the kidney transplant list and their families through their journey of waiting for a kidney and provide them with tools and resources to help them share their stories to find donors Darci shares what motivated her to start this non-profit and the passion behind the project. Darci tells us that her father needed a Kidney transplant, so she leveraged her background in Marketing to share her family story and get the word out about his need. Andi shares the importance of taking action and control over one's health, particularly for those with kidney disease or type 2 diabetes. Darci highlights the need for creating awareness and conversations around these conditions, as people often accept them as their fate without realizing they can take action to prevent or manage them. Darci shares an "aha" moment about the number of young people calling for kidney transplants, highlighting the need for early education and resource sharing. Darci offers encouragement to frustrated dialysis patients, emphasizing hope and support from others, including the possibility of finding a living donor. Andi asks how many families are “Off The List” helping now, and Darcy shares that they are currently working with 80 families. For those who want to contribute, the easiest way would be to go to their website https://getoffthelist.org/ There are programs through the National Kidney Registry where you can donate a kidney. It's called their advanced Donation Program, and you can designate up to five people in your family should they ever need an organ donation. 3 Key Points: Darci Gibson tells us about their non-profit organization called ‘Off The List' and shares how she was pushed into that journey by her own experiences. She also highlights the importance of early education for the next generation to help prevent kidney disease and to have the strength to believe that they could still take steps to manage it. Darci offers words of encouragement to a frustrated dialysis patient, emphasizing hope and support from others, including the possibility of finding a living donor. Tweetable Quotes: “... You have to share personal information. And that's hard to do, as humans, it's hard to ask people for help. And so I felt like there was a gap there that we could help fill and partner with the transplant centers and dialysis and nephrology to be able to just really dig in and personally with families through that and give them the tools.” - Darci Gibson “We just want them to know that we're here.” - Darci Gibson “And it's interesting how when I look back now, all of those things, was preparing me to do this. I mean, there was a reason and a purpose and that's why God was preparing me for this work.” - Darci Gibson Resources: https://getoffthelist.org/ https://lifepassiton.org/ https://lifepassiton.org/board-of-directors-leadership/ https://www.facebook.com/LifeCenterOH https://www.youtube.com/user/LifeCenterOH https://aopo.org/

In the United States today, there are over 110,000 people waiting for an organ transplant. And, Dr. Sandip Kapur says, 92% of those patients are waiting for a kidney. In this episode, Dr. Kapur describes a simple philosophy that helped guide Weill Cornell Medicine into one of the top kidney transplantation centers in the nation: offer the maximum amount of opportunities to transplantation that could exist. That means working with multidisciplinary teams to innovate every step of the kidney transplantation process– from making donor surgeries minimally invasive, to matching donors and recipients in new ways through the National Kidney Registry, and even pioneering research into immunotherapy, to improve success rates and patients' quality of life post-surgery.For more information visit nyp.org/Advances
Kent talks with Emmitt Henderson III the CEO of Male Lupus Warriors. He talks of the difficulties dealing with Lupus and its multiple medical issues that occur. Originally transplanted only to lose the kidney to complications. He talks about his corporation “Male Lupus Warriors” developed to spread Lupus and Mental Health awareness to all who will listen. Emmitt needs A Kidney Donor. Are YOU The One? Emmitt Henderson III was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus and Lupus Nephritis in 1995 but had symptoms going back to 1980. Through the years, he has endured major complications from heart, liver, kidneys, and lung failures, and avascular necrosis that led to a shoulder and knee replacement. He had a clinical trial, a bone marrow stem cell transplant; he was on oxygen due to his lung failure and had a kidney transplant due to kidney failure and brain disease. He was also diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren's Syndrome, and MTCD as well as suffering from a stroke, shingles, gout, chronic fevers, diabetes, and hypertension. In 2019, when Emmitt was diagnosed with brain disease, it medically retired from his career. He decided to advocate for the same disease that debilitated him since 1995 and to talk about how his mental health got him through it all. He created his organization called Male Lupus Warriors Corp to spread Lupus and Mental Health awareness. He holds a safe space for men to meet and talk about their hardships in life, he encourages everyone to not be a victim to their illness. Emmitt did an advocacy campaign in Tanzania Africa in 2022 which included climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. During his climb, he suffered high-altitude pulmonary edema and ended up going into kidney failure for the second time in his life. He is now currently doing home hemodialysis and is on the transplant list for another kidney. During this time, he still maintains his advocacy by being active on social media, he does speakings/podcasts, and facilitating support groups.
