I was born with a kidney problem. I have always been on some sort of treatment. At the age of 10 months, I had one kidney removed; the other one was working with difficulty. I don’t remember one day without pain.
Not all patients have this opportunity, but you can help them to have one.
Organ donation is when a person allows healthy transplantable organs and tissues to be removed, either after death or while the donor is alive, and transplanted into a patient in need.
Organ transplantation is the best treatment for a patient suffering from chronic organ failure. Transplantation allows the patient to lead a normal life.
The Lebanese organ procurement system is based on early donor detection and referral, brain death diagnosis and aggressive management. It is based on a national organ procurement network with a central office (NOD-LB).
