Jes Jaswal, a 32-year-old man from Kelowna, has been living without kidneys for over half his life and is now seeking a kidney match internationally, in countries like India and China, due to his high resistance to potential donors caused by previous transplants and blood transfusions. Despite being a high priority on Canadian donor lists, his chances are slim. Kidney transplants are in high demand in Canada, with a significant waiting list and a decrease in living donations. Jaswal's difficult journey began at nine months old when medication for kidney stones led to complications. He has undergone two failed transplants and long periods of dialysis. He hopes to find a donor to improve his quality of life and to raise awareness about the importance of organ donation.
