Concerned that there might be something wrong with her heart, Angela’s GP referred the 51-year-old for an echocardiogram, but it soon became clear there was an issue with her kidneys.
“I don’t really think I took it all onboard at first. I remember telling my husband ‘they kept talking about a transplant list today but I’m not going to need a transplant – I’ll be fine with dialysis’. Forced to take ill health retirement from her job, in which she helped people with alcohol and drug problems, Angela was keen to find another way to support her local community and joined Kidney Research UK as a volunteer.
