I turned 55 today and I just filled out the National Kidney Registry interest form! First you put in your basic contact info and get an email verification; then there are a handful of health questions (height, weight, ever had various diseases) and whether you are donating for someone you know or Good Samaritan/non-directed. Next step is to get an email letting me know if I passed the screening (no reason it would be anything but yes) and giving me a complete medical history to fill out. They estimate about a day to get the link and an hour to fill it out.
For my birthday I asked Jonathan for an official certificate that he was willing I should do this. As usual he went above and beyond with an amazing document (complete with clip-art kidney giving a thumbs-up) that says I have his “encouragement, endorsement, blessing, and 100% support.” I love it—and him—so much!
