A Life Saved

Posted on by markscotch

Around a year ago I met a man named Brett Ashley in Times Square on our ride from Martha’s Vineyard home to Wisconsin.
He told me the story of how a few years ago when he found out he needed a kidney to eventually maybe just keep on living, he felt it wouldn’t be a problem. He had plenty of friends and family, someone would donate for him.
That didn’t happen.
The best efforts of The Organ Trail weren’t able to help him, either.
But Brett didn’t stop, he kept trying to find that one person, until he did.
A great story!

Hi! I’m Mark Scotch. Follow me on my kidney donation journey. My wife Lynn, and I share the knowledge gained regarding the need for living donors. I am here to prove that donors can return to their previous level of activity and good health, functioning only on a single kidney, even if that includes vigorously sustained activities.
