Fundraising for my Kidney Transplant Journey


Hello guys! I'm Raymond, 21 years old. I'm currently living here in the Philippines. I'm diagnosed with CKD or Chronic Kidney Disease Stage V second to Chronic Glumerulonephritis this January 2024. I need some help for my everyday medication since I'm undergoing dialysis treatment 3x a week. Aside from that, I also need to take my maintenance medicines around 250 pesos or 4 euros everyday. The reason why I'm undergoing dialysis treatment is because my serum creatinine is so high reaching over 1000, while the normal is only below 100. I need dialysis to survive and to maintain my health. The reason why my kidneys are not in very good condition is possible by genetics, as the kidney doctor said. Another possible reason is, untreated Urinary Tract Infection. Furthermore, I recently got admitted at the hospital again due to blood infection. I'm diagnosed with sepsis, so I need to take antibiotics to clean my blood. Our family is not rich, I'm just 21 years old and I don't have any work yet since I'm just a college student. Another thing is I'm experiencing anxiety and depression.

I have a dream of having a kidney transplant. My Nephrologist or Kidney doctor is advising me to have a kidney transplant as soon as possible. She said that transplant is a good choice since I'm still young and can handle the operation. My lab results and xray shows that my heart is still in very good condition, meaning I'm a very good candidate for a kidney transplant. I'm raising funds to save up for my kidney transplant that might cost over a Million Pesos or more (around 15,000 Euros). I also need some funds for my everyday medication.

Before I was diagnosed, I have a strong physicality. I'm very good in playing basketball, in dancing, in chess, and many sports. I'm also excellent in school. I want to finish my schooling and get a college degree. I don't wanna die yet. I want to live a normal life I want to get married, have a family, a son and a daughter. I want to do again the things that I'm doing before I got diagnosed with a chronic illness. I don't have any vice like drinking alcohol or drugs. I just want to live a normal life.

If you have some questions or you need proof, you can message me here. I can share with you my medical records and results. Btw, the campaign period is until next year. Last February 2024, I just received a blood transfusion since my hemoglobin dropped very low. I need to wait for 1 year after the blood transfusion to have a Kidney Transplant.
