Hey Mel, sorry about your friend being turned down as a donor. Keeping fingers crossed that your mom will be a match!

I'm really sorry to hear your friend was ruled out as a donor. I've had several people ruled out as donors and it is always a disappointment. Hang in there!

I have Alport's Syndrome. My kidneys failed when I was 14 and I was on PD for five years before receiving a kidney transplant from my mother. That kidney failed in 2004 and I've been back on PD ever since. I am undergoing treatment for my high antibodies at Cedars-Sinai medical center. I had a kidney transplant on June 10, 2008. My boyfriend was the donor.
