In 2009, Patrice was diagnosed with chronic renal failure, which also afflicts her father and aunt. Soon after her diagnosis, she began enduring regular dialysis treatments, which take a toll on her quality of life. Doctors have said a kidney transplant is critical to her survival. Although she has not found a donor match yet, several family members and friends are being tested to see if they could donate a kidney to save Patrice's life.This devoted mother of two is determined to beat this disease so she can spend many more years with her children. Patrice says her children are her motivation to stay positive on a daily basis. After receiving her transplant, she looks forward to going back to work, taking walks and traveling. Because her illness leaves her so exhausted, her activities are greatly limited. More than anything, Patrice is anxious to have energy and resume her normal activities. But she needs your help.
