Overview:

In this interview, non-directed living kidney donor Drew Sollenberger, shares his experience of donating a kidney to Ethan Hatton, a two-year-old patient with kidney failure. Drew has always been passionate about working with children, and he felt blessed to be able to give Ethan a "completely new lease on life" through a minimally-invasive donation technique that allowed his kidney to be removed through a single incision in his belly button. Drew's selflessness and courage is truly an inspiration to all of us.
