March is Kidney Month and Mar. 11 is World Kidney Day.
As a kidney patient, Jan Clemis was diagnosed over 40 years ago with kidney disease. Clemis is the Alberta director for the Canadian Transplant Association (CTA).
According to Clemis, the two primary goals of the CTA are:
1. Healthy, active lifestyles for transplant recipients, so their donated organ lasts longer and their new life is lived to the fullest.
2. Bring awareness to everyone about organ donation, encourage a candid discussion within families to consider organ donation and register to become an organ donor. Transplantation is the most cost-effective treatment for organ failure, so there is a need for more transplants.
