Kidney Patient
Susan Finelli received a diagnosis of a tumor inside her right kidney in October 2018, resulting in a radical nephrectomy (kidney removal), after which she was diagnosed with Stage 3 CKD. Not being familiar with CKD or how to control it, Susan searched the Web, found and reached out to NKF where she found a wealth of information on how to control and live with the disease. Susan quickly became an NKF volunteer and, with her husband, actively advocates for patients, living donors, and caregivers.
