In this five-minute video, Nicole Colantuno discusses her family's experience at the University of Maryland Medical Center while her son Matthew received treatment for multiple congenital conditions, including a distended bladder and lower urinary tract obstruction, that eventually led to the toddler receiving a kidney transplant at 18 months of age. Matthew's father donated the life-saving kidney to his son.
Nicole talks about the incredible care she and her family received from the different physicians they met during their time at the Medical Center, including Dr. Susan Mendley, Dr. Roger Voight and Dr. Rose Viscardi. She reports that, since the transplant, Matthew has become a very happy, healthy toddler.
