This man… he keeps pushing and pushing..he doesn’t complain.. he just keeps going as best he can.. as hard as it is at times..
Believe it or not the 3rd picture here is the most recent! His daughters thought he needed a new look as he awaits his new kidney!! YES.. a kidney donor has been matched with Bill and the transplant will take place in a few months. We are beyond blessed and grateful ❤️❤️❤️

His donor, Teresa Bennett is an exceptional young woman. She is and has been for quite some time a great family friend and an extremely dear friend to our daughter, Danielle.

Teresa - there isn’t anything that can compare to the blessing that you’re giving our family. Words cannot describe how thankful we are for you and how much you mean to us.

Bill will keep pushing through dialysis until the transplant surgery takes place. Only 25 dialysis appointments left!! (But who’s counting?)

As we all celebrated Father’s Day this weekend.. and told our Dad’s how much we love them and thanked them for all they do for us…. I thanked God for this man!! The “Father” to my 2 beautiful daughters.. and the Pops to my absolutely awesome grandsons and soon to be my first granddaughter 🩷
We all love him so much and really need him to be here with us for a long time. We just want him to be healthy again.
Thank you all for your continued love and support as we navigate through this difficult journey that we are on.

Everything looks the same as last time he had this done which was 2022. That is great news. We needed this to continue to move forward with kidney transplant. Thank you all for your continued love, support and mostly prayers! One day at a time!! 🤞🏼

The waiting is one of the hardest parts of this journey that we are on….
Bill continues to have good days and bad days… dialysis is really hard on him-as I am sure it is for most.. He is so amazing-he is trying so hard to push through so much and to get as much done around the house as he can while he feels good…
We are still looking and praying for that “MATCH” for Bill.. we need your help.. please share, like, talk to people you know..
the link is on this page…
Thank you all.. we greatly appreciate all the love and support, and especially all the prayers!

We have good days and we have bad days.. as we all do. Sometimes on the good days.. for a split second, I forget exactly how sick Bill is..however, I am quickly reminded..
We had our 2nd appointment with UC this week.. met with the transplant team-from surgeons, nurses, dietitians, and social worker.. it was a long, exhausting day.. but a joyous one as this moves us closer to a potential kidney transplant.
I know that they are starting to call in and schedule testing for potential donors..
so, if you have been thinking about it, please.. now is the time. ❤️❤️❤️
A few years ago, I met an incredible couple while camping and we have been Facebook friends since then, she donated her kidney to a friend 18 years ago.. she messaged me and said she would be happy to talk to anyone if they had any questions about donation. I can get you in touch with her if you would like.
Thank you for considering — and if i could ask.. please share!! Thank you !

These photos are from our Christmas Work Party this past Christmas.. we hadn’t fully understood how sick Bill really was… but we knew it wasn’t good… we cried together as a family that night.. right there in front of everyone…we didn’t care. We love this man and we need him.. please ❤️.
If you or anyone you know would be willing to help us by donating a kidney.. please follow the link on this page—and if you can’t—-that’s okay.. but could you please share this information…he only has a temporary catheter and we are hoping and praying that he can get a transplant soon. Much love to everyone ❤️❤️❤️
