Pass It On: Media
The long awaited update is that I received a fabulous new kidney! Hooray!!
If you’d like more detailed information about my experience as a transplant recipient or stem cell treatments, then you may contact me via email to jennysdoodads@gmail.com. You’ll also find information on the “Treatment Options” tab on this blog.
The stream of your comments and questions has been amazing. Thank you for your support, spreading the word about organ, eye, and tissue donation, and sharing how stem cell medicine continues to advance medicine as we know it.
I hope that through the media, my story inspires you and helps you find what you need.
To my delight and surprise, my story went global. I really wish for the conversation about stem cell medicine to be ongoing in America, along with how stem cells from one’s own body can heal damage from different medical conditions and illnesses. Doctors, scientists, and researchers from around the world are woking hard to gather data and prove results.
Past Information
On October 3, 2012, I interviewed with NBC Nightly News. As of today (1/18/2013) they released my interview on their website – THANK YOU NBC! It’s a good piece, and some day perhaps they will air my story on television as well. Stem cell medicine is changing the lives of many people, and the research and clinical studies are increasing at a rapid rate. Many good stories never make it on the air, especially medical breakthroughs. I realize that people are following my progess via this blog, and hopefully in the near future it will include the news that I am completely off of dialysis.
