A WOMAN who suffered acute kidney failure after contracting bacterial meningitis has had her life trans- formed by a transplant made possible by her mum – and a stranger.
Seyda Oates, 24, from Glasgow, shared her story to highlight the benefits of living kidney donation five months on from life-saving surgery.
New research shows four out of five people (80%) in Scotland would be likely to consider donating a kidney while alive to a family member, with almost half (48%) stating they’d be likely to consider donating to a friend and 13% saying they’d consider donating to someone they didn’t know.
