Heart, please. In late June 2019, Giant Cell Myocarditis caused my heart to fail. I was put on ECMO and soon (August 20), I received a new heart.
It took awhile for my doctors to figure out what was causing my severe symptoms, but their diligence and unrelenting determination to keep me alive are the reason I’m still here. We knew nothing about GMC before I got sick, but we’ve become experts. My new heart is doing very well. Life is good.

Hi can you explain the kidneys after the heart. The reason for that is because I was born with hyperdisplastic kidneys. I did dialysis for 18 years. 11 years on PD and 7 HD. This is my third kidney transplant and I’m only 26 years old. After my transplant, I decided to work as a dialysis technician and help people just like me.Also I volunteer at organ donation clinic and want to work as an organ recovery tech.
