Nine-Year-Old’s Race Against Time for Kidney | Perth News
Description
A nine-year-old boy, Rory Hoffman, is racing against time to find a kidney transplant—his only hope for survival as his single kidney fails. With just 16% function and stage four kidney disease, Rory’s mom, Jasmin French, initially hoped to donate but was ruled out. Now, she’s turned to social media, sparking an outpouring of community support—with dozens stepping forward to be tested and one already in the paired donation program. Time is critical: without a living donor, Rory will need dialysis, a grueling weekly routine. His family is urging others to consider donating, living or deceased, to save lives like Rory’s. Those who want to help can contact Perth Children’s Hospital.
