Help Save The Life Of Ken Siegel
 
 
My husband Ken Siegel, 36, a resident of Cliffside Park, NJ is in desperate need of a living kidney donor. He is currently on dialysis and his condition continues to worsen with each session. Please help save my husband's life! Compatible donors should be between 18 and 65, and in good health. There is no cost to the donor and no lifestyle restrictions after the transplant. The initial test is just a simple blood test (absolutely free of cost). After that, if you were a match, and wanted to go further in the process, the next phase would be a whole battery of health tests because the health of the donor is the transplant team's number one priority. The surgery is now done Laparoscopic--so the donor would only have a few small incisions around the belly button.

You can live a completely normal healthy life with just 1 of your own kidneys. In fact, some people are actually born with just 1 kidney. The donor is hospitalized for 2-3 days, and most are back to work within a week.

If you would like to save this young man's life and be tested as a potential donor, please call or email the family for more information: ksiegel@nj.rr.com

Here is some info about the process: http://www.columbiasurgery.org/programs/tx_renal/tx_program.html

Please share this with friends, family and colleagues. You could help to save a life!! With the right transplant, Ken will be healthy again and be able to enjoy a full and productive life.

Thank you so much for reading this.

Please contact me with any questions.
