ONE in ten Canadians has kidney disease 
My dad is ONE.

My dad, Bob, started dialysis a week after my mom died in 2006. He goes for treatment three times a week. He is well cared for and comfortable during treatment. The Kidney Foundation has added to his comfort level by providing blankets and bags and friendly visitors. 

Without treatment, my father would not be with us. We would have lost another treasure.I walk to raise money for The Kidney Foundation. The Kidney Foundation funds scientific research to help ease the burden of those suffering with kidney disease and those who love them.I walk for my dad.


Interested in sharing your story about how you are connected to the ONE in ten Canadians living with kidney disease? Are you ONE? As a renal professional, do you care for ONE? Is you sister or grandparent ONE? Send your story to [email protected] and we may be able to share it on our Kidney Walk Blog, in this e-newsletter or in another publication.
