Not going to lie, we are devastated in any and every way parents can be. It has been since March 7 th since Greer has been on dialysis now for 11 hours every night. We continue to HOPE for a living kidney donor to come forward.If anyone has any further connections to do a follow up story, a new story, interview, podcast, newsletters, anything to spread the word not only to help Greer but create awareness. This is my latest Facebook post regarding our son Greer Viau. Thanks, Donna J Viau
Maybe you don’t know him, never met him….he is so good, so kind, so persnickety, so smart, quirky and fascinating, so inquisitive, so fun, thoughtful and thought provoking. When I hang with my son’s I am in continual awe we were so blessed with two incredible young men, these sons of ours. Bob is beyond devoted. People think about a legacy…what did they do in life or with their life…we got this family of four and the gift of parenting these 2 men Greer & Dylan.
Now one of our gifts, Greer is sick. The kind of sick that an aspirin, a mother’s doting attention, warm ginger ale, cool clothe on the forehead won’t help.
Life threatening illnesses are any parents nightmare….waiting, hoping, the right doctor, the right hospital, the right treatment, the living donor coming, the pain, the hours connected to machines to keep him alive, the WAIT, the HOPE for a LIVING KIDNEY DONOR to Save his Life so he can HAVE A LIFE. It is all totally surreal….agonizing and consuming….each day we go on with NOTHING BUT THAT HOPE to hold on to. We are past the Why of it all and cling to the Hope. Could you Be the HOPE.
Potential Donors can learn so much from Rock 1 Kidney

Also before anyone chimes in, I know it’s great to store it to use for later cooking. Problem is I rarely cook at home this time of year and sometimes you just want to get rid of it.
