Bacterial infections can seem harmless and common, however, if left undiagnosed can leave your body in sepsis. We discuss our own experiences suffering from a bacterial infection that left us hospitalized because of a late diagnosis. Our goal is to share our experience and provide information for others to learn preventative measures that can help. 

In this episode, we discuss Kidney disease portrayal in media and how celebrities and social media have brought awareness to the cause. We will delve into the narrative portrayed in media and how we as patients choose to take the lead in sharing our narrative to normalize CKD and transplantation. The questions we address are: why do we choose to share our story? what responsibility do we have as patients to share our experience, and how can we all bring awareness to the cause in our way?

Tune in to join us on this discussion and share with us your thoughts :) 

Hello everyone! This week, we are joined by Carol Urquidez, the founder of the Kidney Quest Foundation. When Carol first started her foundation,  she had one goal in mind- to support kidney patients.

We discuss her foundation, their efforts and she provides insight on how to start your very own foundation or support group. Thank you so much for joining us this week!
