When Ranita’s kidneys failed unexpectedly at the end of 2015, she was almost at the point of requiring life support.

By March of 2016 she was told she would have 3 months to live unless she began dialysis immediately. And so began her journey to find a donor. In the meantime she got married to Sunny, the man who stood by her through her devastating diagnosis, and all the health crises that ensued. She was lucky enough to receive a kidney transplant on September 5, 2017, just because some great soul took the time to register to be an organ donor.
