All families that love each other above all help each other in times of need, especially on the verge of death.

I was pregnant when my youngest brother got sick, and his nephrologist said he needed a transplant immediately, and his two kidneys were damaged. Out of our five siblings, two of us share his blood type. Our other brother can't donate because he's hypertensive. So I said after I give birth to my baby, we'll get blood typing done. If our tissue is compatible, I'll be the one to donate the kidney.

Five months after I gave birth to my youngest son, my brother's nephrologist said we should be put through all the tests, especially tissue typing. The result was 99.7% so my brother got a kidney transplant.

You are right, it's the deep love of one another in the family that stick us together. Thanks for swinging by @gretelarmfeg. God speed.

Your story is so inspiring. The love and selflessness you showed in your willingness to donate a kidney to your brother, especially after just giving birth, is a testament to the strength of family. You truly embody what family is all about, sacrificing, standing strong for each other, and being there when it matters most. Have a wonderful day! Hugs!🩷
