My name is Donna Ramsey. Over 29 years ago, I started protein spillage in my 8th month of pregnancy. After giving birth to a healthy son, unfortunately, the spillage continued. I was monitored by a very good nephrologist until he retired. Over the years, my kidney functions declined.
On 5/23/25, I was scheduled for an AV Fistula to be performed on the left arm. On 5/20/25, I received a call from Hackensack University Medical Center if I could hurry and come to the hospital; they had a kidney for me. It was a beautiful miracle I received that morning. I am out of work healing. Everything takes time to happen. Some bills are starting to come in. I have insurance, but the deductible is high, and I pay 20% of the doctor bills. I also have rent and bills. I just want to keep ahead of everything. Receiving help from you will be a blessing. I want to thank you for reading my story.
