Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Neil was helped a lot over the last few years with his Kidney disease and transplant. He would appreciate any donations in his memory to help SAKA 🌹

Neil was diagnosed when he was younger with Polycystic Kidney disease! In 2013 his kidneys had enlarged so much with the cysts they had to be removed, it was like he was carrying twins weighing 7.5lb each (they should be half a pound in weight) Over the next 2 years Neil had to have dialysis 3 times a week, 4 hours at a time, as well as continuing to work full time. In 2015 a matched Kidney was found and had a transplant, which was great news - no more dialysis! 

Although it wasn’t the kidney issue that caused his death, he wanted to give something back for all their help 🙂 xx
