Jamie is a 35 year old wife, mother, and teacher. She was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) at the age of 16. She has a rapidly progressive form of the disease and is already having to face the idea of dialysis. Dialysis is a treatment option for those with end stage kidney failure. Dialysis, however, is a large time commitment and can lead one to extreme exhaustion along with other potential complications. Kidney transplant is often a preferred choice. Please listen to Jamie’s journey through her disease process and the steps she is now taking in order to find a kidney donor. Hear from those who work in the transplant field discuss the process of transplant and donation while dispelling any myths and misconceptions. April is National Donate Life Month and April 6, 2022 is Living Donor Day. You can save one or more lives!

The Covid-19 situation has affected each of us in so many ways. While the world struggled to find a collective way to cope and survive, it was divided by media and misinformation. Even now as we recover and begin our “new way of life”, we are continually plagued by political agendas and media frenzy. Join our conversation with Dr. Ryan McNamara, a Covid-19 frontline hospitalist, as he shares firsthand information. We then redirect our discussion to newly learned skills and hobbies as a positive result of the epidemic.
