Shirley's Story

SHIRLEY Kidney Transplant Recipient

Shirley's Story - Swing Dancer, State Analyst, Lover of Life, Kidney Recipient.

"If someone had told me ten years ago that I would now be dancing through life – I wouldn't have believed it. After suffering complete kidney failure, I was placed on dialysis and then the national transplant waiting list. I waited five long years for a second chance, but it came, because a donor and a family made the decision to give life. Now I am back to work full time and more than that – several times a week I'm on the dance floor. My transplant allowed me to live like a normal person again!"
