    Living donor chain-a way to save Mary Kay's life.

    Mary Kay has AB+ blood which is a universal receiver for a kidney. Unfortunately, due to many blood transfusions and over thirty years of dialysis, Mary Kay has antibodies and an altruistic donor is a better chance for a new life. Please ask if any questions about how you can help. Info on a recent "chain" out of the Ohio State Medical Center.
