REAL PATIENTS. REAL STORIES
kidney
transplant at
Baylor gave me
back my health.
Fifteen years ago, Laura Heffelfinger was diagnosed with polycystic
kidney disease, a hereditary condition that has no cure. As toxins built up
in her body, she had no energy and wanted to sleep all the time. She was
terrified by the prospect of going on dialysis. At Baylor All Saints Medical
Center at Fort Worth, Laura had a kidney transplant. “When I woke up
in the hospital, I could tell a difference in my energy level. It was just
phenomenal.” Laura now has the energy to keep up with her grandson
and enjoy family vacations. “At Baylor Fort Worth, they treated me as a
whole person, spiritually, emotionally and physically. I feel like that had
a lot to do with my wonderful recovery that I’m enjoying today.”
