Aidan’s Story
Aidan’s parents began to worry when they noticed changes in his energy levels, and regular activities like family bike rides became more and more tiring for him. At Lurie Children’s, he was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease. He and his parents met with members of the pediatric nephrology team, who helped Aidan to understand his condition in an age-appropriate way and included him in conversations at each appointment.
Within a few months of diagnosis, Aidan needed a new kidney — and his mother, Christine, was a perfect match. Aidan and Christine underwent surgery in April 2021. Post-transplant, Aidan has enjoyed great health and continues to express loving gratitude toward his kidney donor, his mom.
Aidan will require ongoing care and, most likely, future transplants, which is why your continued support is so important. Thank you for making his future bright!
Thank you!
