About Me
I donated a kidney to a stranger and it was the greatest experience of my life! If I can do it again, I would do it again tommorow!
I now have a project to help others who are in desperate need of a kidney. My brother donated a kidney as well - to someone on my list of people who was in desperate need of a kidney.
Stories about me have been written in publications/newspapers in New York, New Jersey, Minnesota and Britain. I was in Prevention Magazine, February 2009 issue. I have been on "This American Life" on NPR a couple of times. I was also on a 1/2 hour ABC-TV special: "Giving Life" The Story Of Organ Donation."
If you would like more information about kidney donation, you can contact me as well - (917) 627-8336. Please visit my website, KidneyMitzvah.com for more info.
