Kidney Transplant - Latest News Update, Information, Photos & Videos on Kidney Transplant at Lokmat Times

Two sisters from Illinois, United States donated their kidneys to strangers 24 hours apart in honor of their dad who passed away from kidney failure. Sisters Bethany and Hannah Goralski made the decision in the hopes that two other families would not have to suffer the way they did after losing their dad Mark. Their dad succumbed to kidney failure and Crohn’s disease last September 2018, as per “Good Morning America” on June 3. He first underwent a kidney transplant in 2011 and was supposed to undergo a second one last year, but was deemed not healthy enough by doctors.Hannah, 24 years old, also said it was a great way to honor their dad, who was giving and kind to the people around him. The sisters underwent the surgeries at the Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago last March, the very same hospital where their dad received his first transplant eight years back. Bethany shared the moment on social and posted a photo of her and Hannah after the operation. In the photo, the sisters can be seen showing their stitches from the surgeries. The sisters have no regrets and believe their dad would have done the same thing should he be alive.
