One of our own and a very dear friend to most of us, and one of the DC area's finest voices and performers, Linda Russell needs our help. Until recently she had embargoed any public knowledge of what I am about to share with you. Now the time has come for us to mobilize our forces of numbers and come to her aid.
This is truly a life or death situation:
Linda is in kidney failure and needs a new kidney soon.
Her first transplant was a kidney and pancreas transplant 8 years ago. The pancreas is still working, but the transplanted kidney is shot and she is starting dialysis.
Since she has already had 1 transplant her immune system is

such that her odds of rejecting a cadaver kidney are much higher than from a living donor.
She needs a donor who is blood type either B positive or O positive. After blood type matching tissue matching will be needed which itself may or may not prove to be workable.
We need to put the word out that we need someone to BE A HERO, and SAVE OUR LINDA.
This is an opportunity for someone who loves Linda to really make a positive, literally life saving difference. We only have about 1 year to get this done or we will lose her.
