A WWE name has announced her decision to donate her kidney in a procedure on July 12.
Making the announcement via an Instagram post, WWE backstage interviewer Megan Morant explained her reasoning behind the decision, stemming from a personal experience with a close friend who was in need of a transplant.
Unfortunately due to her not being the correct blood type she could not donate to her friend that was in need, however, the disappointment of the experience led her to make a self-promise to donate if the opportunity arose.
Morant was presented with another chance through the wife of her previous boss who was is also in need of a donor.
Now, Morant is set to undergo the procedure on July 12 through the National Kidney Registry’s joint donor program, explaining the full story that led to the decision in her post, which you can find below in full:
I’m still not really sure where to start with this post, but here’s my best try:
Tomorrow I am donating my kidney.
I’m sure you have lots of questions so here goes nothing: You see, back in November I learned that my friend @mstevenk needed a kidney. After chatting with him about kidney transplants at work, I was intrigued.
I rushed home and spent the entire weekend reading kidney.org before telling Kirsh that I would gladly test for him. A few blood tests later, and I got a call that Kirsh and I were not a match.
Instantly, I felt very sad. I wanted to help, but couldn’t. So I made a promise to myself: if the opportunity to donate a kidney ever comes up again in my life, I’ll do it.
About a week later, on a group chat with my old work pals at the @patriots I learned that my previous boss’ wife was in kidney failure. It all felt meant to be.
After 5 months of testing, and a few more months of waiting, the day has finally come. While Margrette and I also are not a blood type match, through the National Kidney Registry’s joint donor program, I will advance donate tomorrow and in return, Margrette will get a kidney to save her life.
Throughout this whole process, Margrette has been an absolute rockstar. She remains extremely positive through her daily dialysis and continues to work in the nonprofit space to make life better for others all while enduring the pain and discomfort that is kidney failure.
I feel so blessed to be in a position to help Margrette and her family. It’s truly the honor of my life, and it reminds me why we are all here: to help and be there for each other🫶🥹
While I’ve had my strong/brave girl face on this entire process, I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little nervous, so If you’re a person that prays, please keep us in your prayers tomorrow. 🙏💚
I ’ll see you all on the other side! We’ve got our green nails on and we are ready to go! #DonateLife #kidneydonor #kidney
We at WrestleTalk would like to extend our well wishes to Morant in her procedure.
