Episode 107: Senet's Kidney Warrior Story: A Life-Changing Journey from Dialysis to Transplantation

In this riveting episode of the Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, host Dee Moore invites kidney warrior, Senet Kassaye, to share her transformative journey - from unexpected kidney failure and dialysis to eventual kidney transplantation. Senet's vivid recounts of battling diabetes at a tender age, experiencing a sudden stage 5 kidney failure, and the ensuing life-altering decision to undergo dialysis offer valuable insights into the mental rigour required during such transformative periods.
Through a series of probing questions, Dee dives deep into Senet's narrative, elucidating the complexities of her decision-making process, particularly her choice against the fistula. Transitioning to a hopeful note, the conversation culminates with Senet narrating her joyous experience of kidney transplantation, providing a unique perspective and valuable advice for patients facing sudden kidney ailments and possible lifestyle adjustments.
Senet's story is one of survival and resilience. She details her anticipatory anxiety during the drive to the transplant hospital, the rejection of her pancreas transplant and the relief accompanying the acceptance of her new kidney. Discussing the immense physical pain resulting from organ rejection, she grimly recalls opting for a second surgery to remove her pancreas. That said, the successful compatibility of her new kidney re-echoes the monumental significance of a successful transplant, made more meaningful as it saved her from an exhaustive dialysis routine.
In a segment focused on patients' post-transplant needs, Senet shares some practical advice on maintaining the health of the new organ, staying adherent to the medication routine, and keeping a positive mindset. Particularly touching is Senet's appreciation for organ donors and their families, emphasising England's opt-out organ donation system, and encouraging those considering to opt-out to prioritise lives over fears.
This revealing episode concludes on a hopeful note, powerfully resonating the undying spirit of positivity and looking forward to better times despite significant health challenges. Thus, it delivers an inspiring journey of a brave Kidney Warrior, offering light to others embarking on a similar path - proving that there is hope and life after a kidney transplant.

Episode 106: Young, Brave & on Dialysis: Emma’s Fight for Awareness

On this episode of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, we bring you the powerful story of Emma Kearns, a young peritoneal dialysis patient whose journey is one of resilience, determination, and survival.
From her early diagnosis of kidney disease to battling sepsis, kidney failure, and navigating ableist workplaces, Emma’s experience sheds light on the harsh realities of chronic illness while inspiring hope for others facing similar struggles.
Emma shares how she left behind her life in Liverpool to return to Northern Ireland for a transplant, a move that came with deep emotional challenges, including the fear of catheter surgery and adjusting to dialysis.
We explore the misconceptions surrounding dialysis, the mental toll of being tethered to a machine, and the struggle to maintain a sense of normalcy. She opens up about the painful realities of ‘drain pain,’ living with a catheter, and the impact of public misconceptions about CKD.
Despite these challenges, Emma’s strength shines through. With the support of the TikTok kidney community, she has found a powerful platform to raise awareness about kidney disease, fight stigma, and connect with others on the same journey.
In this heartfelt conversation, we also discuss the barriers young kidney patients face, including the lack of understanding and empathy in workplaces, and the crucial role of social media in building a global support network for kidney warriors.
Join us for this inspiring episode as we explore Emma’s journey—a testament to the resilience, courage, and hope that defines the kidney warrior spirit.

Episode 105: Born a Fighter: Fez's Journey Through CKD & Three Transplants

In this powerful episode of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, host Dee Moore sits down with Fez Awan, a true warrior who has battled Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) since birth. Fez’s journey has been marked by immense challenges—three kidney transplants, childhood struggles with illness, and the emotional toll of growing up with a chronic condition. Yet, through it all, his unwavering determination and passion for advocacy shine brightly.
 
Fez opens up about his early years, navigating school, bullying, and the weight of a lifelong illness, offering an honest and heartfelt perspective on what it means to grow up with CKD. He shares the importance of mental health, support networks, and self-education, reminding young CKD patients and their families that they are not alone. His message is clear: take things one step at a time, focus on what you can control, and never lose hope.
 
Beyond his personal journey, Fez is dedicated to giving back to the kidney community. As the Chair of a patient-led renal network in Lancashire, England, he continues to advocate for better patient support and awareness. His work is a testament to the power of resilience, positivity, and community strength in the face of chronic illness.
 
Join us for this inspiring and deeply moving conversation as Fez shares his trials, triumphs, and lessons learned from a life shaped by CKD. His story is more than a testament to survival—it’s a beacon of hope for anyone battling kidney disease or supporting a loved one through it.
