Leon Szewcyk, a 73-year-old from New Jersey, is set to receive his fourth organ transplant, a kidney from his daughter, Jennifer Szewcyk, after being on a transplant waiting list for five years. Having previously undergone two heart transplants and a kidney transplant, Szewcyk expressed his gratitude, emphasizing the importance of his daughter's choice to donate. Both he and his daughter highlighted the emotional aspects of this life-changing procedure and shared their hopes for the future, including potentially witnessing family milestones that they thought were lost due to his medical challenges.
"It's unbelievable. She's willing to do it. I'm just worried though, I want to make sure she's ok after this, I get a second chance of life."
"You know, I can live the rest of my life with one kidney. If I decided not to and dad passed away, I would never forgive myself."
