Wendy Copeland

Hi friends! My name is Wendy Copeland. In 2005 while pregnant with my son Anthony, I became very ill with a kidney infection. It was determined at the moment that I had stage two Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). I left the hospital back then with a diagnosis of Focal Segmental Glomerulus Sclerosis.

My journey with CKD has been quite a ride. Throughout the years, I went through the different stages of CKD, kidney failure, dialysis, and recently a kidney transplant. I have shed a lot of tears but also have celebrated a lot of small victories. My disease has never defined me and I will never stop trying to improve my life.

My goal with this channel is to help others that, unfortunately, will be walking the same road. I am hoping that sharing my experience can help you prepare for or improve what's coming ahead in your journey. I want to share my experience as well as give my best advice to help you stay healthy, happy, and strong.
