STATUS:
Waiting
Arthur “Roger” Bruce enlisted in the Army in 1972 and served eight years as a medic and nurse clinician in a Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU) with the 82nd Airborne. He also had an assignment at Dwight D. Eisenhower Army Medical Center at Fort Gordon, GA before his honorable discharge in 1980.
After his military service, Roger continued working as a nurse and later became a licensed paramedic. He was working at a nuclear power plant in the safety department when an accident happened, so he sprang into action and became a certified safety professional. Roger ended up working on-call with a company traveling to teach workplace safety, CPR, and first aid. He has provided environmental help at Three Mile Island and the clean-up of the Hudson River.
Roger and his wife Joann have been married for 49 years and have a son and a daughter, plus two grandchildren. He volunteers for the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) by driving them to their medical appointments and continues to occasionally work as a paramedic to keep his license current. Roger feels that his kidneys were affected by the environmental toxins he was exposed to, has Stage 5 kidney failure but is not yet reliant on dialysis. Will you help Roger continue his volunteer work and be there for his family by sharing his need for a kidney transplant or considering becoming his kidney donor?
He has enlisted the help of a Veteran's organization called DOVE Transplant which is helping in his outreach to find his life-saving kidney donor. DOVE will assist all prospective donors throughout the process and make sure they do not incur any out-of-pocket expenses related to the evaluation or surgery.
