(Part 2) This week’s guest is Trevor Anderson. Trevor is a husband, father of six, and kidney transplant recipient. At the age of 25, Trevor began experiencing symptoms of kidney failure. Over the next 15 years, he endured unimaginable medical and emotional hardship. During his journey toward a seemingly—and statistically—impossible kidney transplant, Trevor’s medical complexities continued to mount. Along the way, he welcomed four more children, maintained his career, supported his family, and stayed deeply engaged in his community. Trevor openly shares his gratitude for the many people who carried him through every stage of his journey, from his initial diagnosis to his life-saving transplant, and reflects on the deeper meaning found in perseverance, faith, and community.
