Here's Today's Feel-Good Story:
A father decided to donate his kidney to an unknown patient after his daughter received a donated one in a life-saving procedure.
Arfon Jone' Daughter Seren became severely ill and had to have both of her kidneys removed. The first donation was not a match and Seren was on a dialysis machine for 10 hours a night.
Seren finally received a good kidney after months of waiting.
“Without the kidney, I wouldn’t be alive today, possibly,” said 19-year-old Seren.
During this process, her father Arfon learned about the process of donating a kidney.
