A Kidney For Ken

My blogs

About me

Introduction Ken and I were married in 1972 and are blessed with 3 amazing children, Stefanie, Greg and Kelly, and three beautiful grandchildren, Addie, Sophie, and Jillie. In addition to being a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather, Ken is an avid golfer, a diehard New Orleans Saints fan, and very active in his church and community. In November 1998 at his routine yearly doctor’s appointment, a test revealed something that was wrong with Ken’s kidneys. After more invasive testing was done, he was diagnosed with Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, later changed to Membranous Nephritis. Here was a man who was healthy with normal blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight. He had no illnesses or diseases and no unusual symptoms. How could this happen? And so the journey began – a quest to find answers, solutions, and treatments. With the love and encouragement of my generous family and friends, I have started this blog to support Ken, to educate and help others in similar situations, and ultimately to find a kidney for Ken.
