- And from those who urgently need a kidney, only 3% are getting one each year! 97% – they WAIT!
- 20% of us die each year because we did not have luck to be up on the transplant list! Dialysis is good, but not perfect:(
We have done this site because one of us will need a kidney soon. And it has no family/friends to turn to. The waiting lists are years long (5-10 in average, depending on the country). And other options are not around the corner.
