Symptoms of 24-year-old Kevin Flegler’s swollen foot led to him spending five days in the ICU before he was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. Now, Fleger is in serious need of a kidney donor and needs your help.

He is only 24 years old but diagnosed with two failing kidneys. He is in need of a donor but only needs one kidney to return to a normal, healthy and long life."I woke up and my foot was swollen. This happened a couple times prior, so I thought it was like gout," Kevin Flegler said.Around October 22nd of last year, after going to urgent care, Flegler, 24, found out it was something far more serious."They were like ‘your blood pressure is abnormally high,’" he recalled.

I take a lot of meds now," said Kevin. He has to follow a strict routine."I can only drink 40 ounces a day of liquid, period. So, that is really a pet peeve for me. Eating healthier and sodium restriction ain’t that bad," he said. It is also challenging to do the physical stuff he loves like hooping with his friends and family.Receiving a kidney would allow him to go back to living like most young men his age and without worry about his future.
