‘I can’t imagine him not being there’: Wayne County family searches for kidney donor to save grandad’s life

Ed Nyberg, a 68-year-old man with Stage 5 kidney failure, is seeking a living kidney donor as his family distributes flyers and yard signs to raise awareness. His family highlights the challenges of waiting for a deceased donor transplant, which can take years, and notes Michigan's programs to support living donors financially. The National Kidney Foundation of Michigan reports over 2,300 people in the state await transplants.
