Living Donor Workshop with Nancy Marlin, PhD
“How to Find a Living Donor” is a 90-minute, small group interactive session that provides education about living kidney donation and, most importantly, actively engages participants in the process required to find a living donor.
The workshop is led by Nancy Marlin, PhD, a polycystic kidney disease (PKD) patient and recipient of a kidney transplant from an unrelated living donor. Having experienced the entire transplant process herself, she is extremely sensitive to the emotional vulnerability of people who are often desperate, frustrated and discouraged about finding a donor. The goal of this program is to move patients beyond their passive confusion or denial and share with them a pathway as to how they can move forward toward transplant.
Stay tuned for future course dates!
