Wales moves closer to introducing the soft opt out system on organ donation

Hi, I'm a kidney transplant patient living in Wales. I've had my transplant for 30 years and give thanks daily to my unknown donor and donor family. I'm proud that the majority of Welsh people are in favour of the soft opt out system. Welsh people show their caring attitude to others in many ways, donating organs just but one of these.

My brother who lives in Israel have kidney disease hereditary severe and does dialysis for 2 years, he is a young 35 years old married with three young children .three times a week for about six hours a day, including travel, and of course it is intolerable situation for our family, we looked for solution and we checked and many places where transplantation can be performed. It took a long time and we finally found reliable and organized place after recommendations from patients who maid transplantation with great success! We now are in vey advanced stage for transplantation.

Hi Gloria

Nice to see you have more chances of joining other groups unfortunately there is nothing like that in this area but my unit is starting up a patient forum soon
