DINA-"The Right One"
📝 Episode Description:
In this intimate and emotionally layered conversation, Jay Gittleson sits down with Dina — the woman who stood beside Billy, a beloved figure in both the kidney and TikTok communities.
Through her honest reflections, Dina opens up about love, loss, and what it means to walk beside someone through every season — even when the path is uncertain.
Jay shares how his own kidney transplant journey became a gateway to helping others, and how Billy’s story — amplified by Dina’s quiet strength — reached hearts far beyond what either of them expected.
Together, they explore the emotional toll of caregiving, the sacred work of showing up, and the legacy of a love that doesn’t fade.
This isn’t just a tribute. It’s a story of devotion, resilience, and what it means to be “the right one” in a world that rarely gives us perfect timing — but sometimes gives us the right people.
