SALEM It’s not every day you see a car with a message on its window saying, “Be my hero. I need a kidney,” but a local woman is hoping that note will provide a miracle.
Janet Josephson, 56, is married and has three kids, all in their 20s. About six years ago, the Salem resident went into kidney failure, and since then, her condition has gotten worse. She’s been on dialysis for almost three years and has to undergo the procedure at home every night.
