@lwilkey I don’t know which kidney my daughter donated (don’t remember). In regards to Paired Kidney Exchange Program I recall receiving literature and signing something regarding being interested in participating in the program. Sadly my quest for a living kidney donor has not yielded any viable results. The few nibbles there have been didn’t make it past the health history questions: too old, too obese, a history of some sort of rehab?, psychologically unfit? ..... and the usual person in an undeveloped country far away that wants to sell their kidney 😒. I have been looking since 2016 and haven’t made much progress. On the bright side my UNOS listing was changed to inactive because my GFR is now 26 and I am currently considered too healthy for transplant at this time. I (GFR) have bounced around from 14 - 42 over the past 5 years. I thank God for this, so your precious kidney won’t be going to me. The person who gets your kidney will be blessed. I pray blessings on you as well.
