Lifelong Ansonia resident desperately needs kidney

I cannot say it any better than those friends of Diane who have already written lovingly on Facebook about her urgent need for a kidney.

As a kidney recipient from an altruistic donor nearly six years ago I can commiserate with her plight. 

I hope and pray the same good fortune will fall upon Diane and someone will soon come forward to give her the gift of renewed good health.
