You may remember Dawn from Episode 37, where we shared her incredible journey to kidney health—a path filled with challenges, resilience, and ultimately, transformation. Diagnosing her condition, advocating for proper treatment, and ensuring access to life-saving medications were just some of the hurdles she faced. But through it all, Dawn remained determined, turning obstacles into stepping stones toward a brighter future.

 

This week, Dawn returns to Gift of Life – The Organ Transplant Podcast to share even more wisdom. As a licensed clinical social worker with a LCSW in Social Work and Rapid Implementation Specialist Clinician at CBHCare Wellness and Support Center, she brings valuable insights for transplant patients, their families, and anyone navigating a chronic illness. From practical tips on managing the transplant process to emotional guidance for those waiting for a life-saving organ, Dawn’s experience is both inspiring and deeply informative.

 

Beyond the struggles, her journey has also brought profound blessings—a fulfilling career, a loving marriage, and a deep appreciation for the present moment. Her story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the life-changing gift of organ donation.

 

Join us for this heartfelt conversation, and let Dawn’s journey remind us all of the strength that lies within and the importance of advocating for our health.
