Danyea was fortunate to have stable kidney health for 14 years until she was diagnosed with End stage Renal Disease at the age of 28 and in need to proceed with Dialysis in 2018. She experienced a year of Peritoneal Dialysis but needed to convert to emergency Hemodialysis after a failed kidney transplant surgery date. Rest assured 2 months later she received a kidney transplant in December of 2020 from an unknown living donor who wanted to save her life.
