6 Benefits to Finding a Living Kidney Donor

Wait Time

You can significantly reduce your wait time. After all the donor testing is complete and your donor has been approved by the transplant team, your surgery can be scheduled.

Better Outcomes

You increase the chances that your transplanted kidney will last longer than one received from a deceased donor. On average, a kidney from a living donor lasts 15-20 years versus a kidney from a deceased donor which averages 8-12 years.

Dialysis

You might be able to avoid or shorten the amount of time you are on dialysis. You are more likely to have better outcomes with your new kidney if you are transplanted before starting or after a short time on dialysis.

Schedule

You can schedule the transplant surgery at a time that is convenient for both you and the donor, allowing you and your family to prepare for major surgery.

Better Match

You are more likely to receive a kidney that is a better genetic match, which may decrease the risk of organ rejection.

Work Immediately

You are more likely to receive a kidney that will start working immediately upon transplantation. Deceased donor kidneys can be “sleepy” and take some time to “wake up” and start functioning.

The numbers say it all

You don’t need to wait… you can take action now by finding a living kidney donor.

I was blessed to meet Darci at the very beginning of my search for a living kidney donor. She taught me the importance of being my own advocate and appointing a Kidney Donor Champion to help me share my story. In addition, she provided me the tools and marketing knowledge to launch my campaign to find a donor. Seven months after meeting Darci, I was given my second chance at life when I received the greatest gift of all…the gift of life from a living donor. Almost three years later, I am healthy and living my best life. I am so proud of her for establishing this foundation and being the voice for all those waiting for a lifesaving kidney transplant. She is an inspiration and a wonderful mentor.

Someone once said, “If you want something thing done, ask a busy person to do it.” Clearly, they had Darci Gibson in mind! What started as a personal crusade to find a living kidney donor for her father, Alan, has transformed into a mission to support individuals on the kidney transplant list, provide assistance to their families with proven tools to help identify a donor, and increase overall awareness about living kidney donation. Working alongside Darci on Alan’s Kidney Quest was a blast. She has a special talent for motivating people, encouraging creativity, and most of all, for getting things done. I can’t wait to see how many lives are transformed for the better because of Darci and Off the List™.
