Jasmine's & Ben's kidney
Donation protected
Jasmine was diagnosed with Lupus and it's been rough on us all. For about 3 years now she's been fighting for her life with numerous hospital visits and stays. Her lupus was out of control it was attacking her kidneys and eventually her kidneys stopped working. Going from being told she was going to die to a miracle walking. So many days have come and gone so many continued to test but everybody got the same answer " you're not healthy enough to donate" but after the latest attempt from an ICU patient that ended up their kidney wasn't healthy enough, that was the last time I told myself. I couldn't stand seeing my sister disappointed again after everything she had been through, so I went forward with the donation process and as of March 28, 2016 I got the phone call we've all been waiting for "Ben I want to congratulate you, you've been approved to donate your kidney". I instantly broke down thanking God I was so happy and emotional but we now have another journey to take on for both her and I. Our lives will continue, bills will continue to build up, my daughter and family will still need taking care of, Jasmine's doctor bills have already sky rocketed, so we ask that anything will help and that you share our story to anybody and everybody thank you all!
