More Americans need a kidney transplant than any other organ. When kidneys fail, people must rely on dialysis treatments or receive a kidney transplant to survive. A transplant from a living donor offers the best chance for a longer, healthier life.


Rachel Kijek-Miller of Hamburg is one of 8,000 New Yorkers waiting for a kidney transplant. She is working with the transplant team at Erie County Medical Center (ECMC). To help share her story, her family contacted the Kidney Foundation of Western New York.
