Discover the Gift of Kidney Donation
In a world where the critical demand for life-saving kidney transplants far outweighs the supply of kidneys from deceased donors, the need for living kidney donors has never been greater. That’s why living kidney donors created this guide—to demystify this extraordinary gift and help more people receive the gift of life by encouraging healthy individuals to consider if organ donation is right for them. Backed by the latest scientific research and blended with deeply personal insights from those who’ve been through this remarkable journey, Gifting Kidneys answers all the common questions and fears of living kidney donation in an intimate and simplified question-and-answer style, such as:
- Who is eligible to donate a kidney?
- How are donors and recipients matched, and what can you do when they don’t match?
- How do donors get started, and what’s the process for donating?
- What are the health risks of donating?
- What emotions might donors expect to experience?
- What might donors expect for the surgery and recovery?
- Does donating cost financially?
- How do donors stay healthy with one kidney?
- And much more!

Store description
Sharing is the best surprise When we share our excess with others we¿re often surprised by what we feel, what changes in us, and who we get to know in the process. Sharehouse Goods exists to create that experience for as many people as possible. Sharehouse Goods receives excess stuff from individuals or organizations (our sharers), and then we liquidate that stuff, creating jobs for people in Milwaukee. The process is simple: we receive what people are willing to share, and then we sell it online or at our storefront, creating revenue for the sharers (to keep or to donate), and jobs for people who are struggling to find employment. There¿s a lot of sharing going on, and even more surprises, at Sharehouse Goods.…
