BOOK:
Finding a Kidney And Getting the Most Out of Your Transplant
by Garet Hil

Many people experience kidney failure … you are not alone. 

Over 100,000 people in the United States are walking around with a transplanted kidney in them, and are leading full productive lives.

A complex and confusing world confronted the Hils when their 10-year-old daughter needed a kidney transplant and everyone in the immediate family was incompatible. They launched an extensive donor campaign and entered every paired exchange system in the country. This same challenge is faced by thousands of people every year. Based on this experience, author Garet Hil has written this book to fill the void and explain in simple terms what you need to know to Find a Kidney and Get the Most Out of Your Transplant .

A step-by-step expert guide, an important resource, and a reflection of the passion of the author, whose drive and enthusiasm has been a gift not only to his daughter but to all people in need of a kidney transplant. Finding a Kidney is designed for those who want to put themselves in the best position to receive an excellent kidney transplant outcome.

Relating a personal experience, providing hope to help you improve your chances of getting a successful transplant, increasing the odds that your transplanted kidney will last as long as possible, setting yourself up to win, offering essential information about the kidney transplant process, giving insights on how to improve your odds, running an effective donor campaign, choosing a transplant center, and leveraging paired exchange, Finding a Kidney: And Getting the Most Out of Your Transplant is truly a valuable read.
