Wish You Could Talk to Someone Who Understands Your Situation?
Do you feel troubled by concerns and circumstances related to your kidney disease?
Would you like to talk to someone who has been through what you’re going through, understands your situation and can relate to your fears as a fellow champion warrior?
You've Come to the Right Place!
Our “Best-Life” Kidney Patient Coaches have walked a mile in your shoes. They understand your journey and made it to the finish line. They’re “standing-by” to learn more about your journey, share powerful insights and offer turning points to those who seek to live their best life possible.
While you’ve been told to talk to your family and friends—but you shudder at the thought of approaching the conversation. Mostly, because, as much as they wish they could help you, they can’t possibly understand what you’re going through.
Similarly, your doctors don’t understand what it’s like to be the patient, that’s why it’s important to talk to someone who does.
Talk to Someone Who Gets You!
Our Kidney Patient Coaches know what it’s it like to be living a life with kidney disease.
They can help you sort through your emotions and develop coping strategies by sharing hurdles they’ve overcome through life-changing epiphanies.
They’ll listen to your concerns and drop “wisdom pearls” along the way.
They’ll even share strategies behind their successes—up to and including how they made mindless mistakes just to ensure you don’t repeat these common pitfalls.
While they will NEVER offer up medical advice, they may encourage you to go back to your healthcare team with more specific questions and requests.
Ultimately, they’re standing by to inspire you to become your own best advocate, identify your goals, script your story—and enlist a team of advocates to help you reach the finish line. A better and longer life!

New! Children’s Book: Sydney’s Kidney Adventure
Award-winning (Literary Titan) author, Risa Simon, created this uplifting tale and unforgettable “kidney treasure hunt” for a living kidney donor that touches hearts, instills hope, and attracts a world of human kindness.
This captivating children’s book is not just a story, it’s a life lesson in the incredible power of family love and support in pursuit of human kindness. The book has also been described as a “A children’s book that naturally inspires adult readers to explore living donation for themselves or someone in need.“
It all begins when Sydney, a precious little 7-year-old girl, finds herself called to a higher purpose after she learns of her mother’s battle with kidney disease and need for a kidney transplant. Once she discovers that neither she nor her father can donate one of their kidneys, (and how long her mother would have to wait for a kidney from a deceased organ donor), Sydney makes a big wish to find a new kidney for her mother all on her own.
This book was written to offer parents a way to ease into conversations about a loved one’s struggle with kidney disease, their need for a transplant, and search for a living kidney donor. It was also written to inspire waitlisted kidney patients and family members to team up and spread the word.
