I have a personal appeal to make.
A family member of mine has Stage 4 Kidney Disease and he needs a new kidney. We're looking in the family for match but so far no luck. So, I'm turning to you. If anyone is able or willing, please visit donorsforalan.com

A little about Alan:
On my first trip to see family back east when I was 16, Alan brought me to Philly’s Little Italy. “You don’t know real Italian,” he told me before shoving a bowl of Mussels in Spicy Red Sauce toward me. “Eat!” I admit I hesitated...
On my first trip to see family back east when I was 16, Alan brought me to Philly’s Little Italy. “You don’t know real Italian,” he told me before shoving a bowl of Mussels in Spicy Red Sauce toward me. “Eat!” I admit I hesitated...
...The only Mussels I knew grew on the side of the Santa Monica Boardwalk. Nice to look at, never to eat. But Alan was tough and I wanted to prove myself to be more than the lightweight cousin from California, so I ate. Hand to God, it changed me...
...If these weird slimy globs were this good, what else had I been missing out on? I know it’s just food but it is still one of my sharpest teenage memories...
...I think that’s because it made me more adventurous, more willing to try something new, go somewhere unfamiliar, surrender to the flow…
...I know times are tough and too many of us have appeals just like this but any consideration you could give Alan would mean a lot to me and my family. Thank you, Katy.
