During the first half of the program we were joined by a woman who is in need of a new kidney. One the second portion of the show, Juvenile Court Judge Donna Scott Davenport looks back at the life of Circuit Court Judge Keith Siskin, who passed away this past July.

Segment 1:

Sarah, who lives in Smyrna, Tennessee, undergoes about four hours of dialysis three times per week. She has held onto that schedule for the past two years or longer. She needs a new kidney and she is on the list to receive one, but it takes time - a lot of it.

Listen to this 8 minute and 15 second interview of what it's like to undergo dialysis treatment three times weekly as she waits for good news.

Of course, you could help her with that good news by calling the Vanderbilt Kidney Donation Center and volunteering to donate your kidney.
