I had a kidney transplant in 1993, and have recently returned to dialysis while I await a second transplant. A little known fact among the general public is that transplants do not typically last a lifetime. With the population in this country aging and rates of high blood pressure and diabetes increasing, the wait list for transplantation will continue to increase. The list of those that are waiting has increased by over 15000 in the time that I have been waiting myself. Innovative technologies and new ideas must be applied if this situation it ever to be improved. Best regards and best wishes for success with this project!
