Glasgow double kidney transplant survivor takes on epic challenge after 'miracle' recovery

A Glasgow double kidney transplant survivor who almost died has taken on a huge charity challenge alongside one of the family members who helped save her life.

Ifrah Raza, 31, fell ill suddenly when she was 11 years old. She was soon diagnosed with kidney failure as medics discovered her kidneys also measured small.

The fighter suffered a cardiac arrest and fell into a coma for a few days and doctors prepared loved ones to 'say their final goodbyes'. Miraculously, Ifrah survived and two years later her uncle, Ijaz, donated a kidney to help her on the road to recovery.
