Some of you may know of Lori Hartwell. She's a long-time kidney patient and we have gotten to know her over the years.
She puts on the Prom for Kidney Teens each year, and Jenna was lucky to attend when she was younger. Now we volunteer for it.

She is receiving an award - the President's Medal on November 7th from the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) meeting in Atlanta. 

There is an article about it in the October issue of ASN's Kidney News magazine.

To celebrate RSN's 20th Anniversary they made a video to tell Lori's story: http://youtu.be/I6M8vq3KgjY
