Latest KAS News: "Make Your Kidney Last By Putting It First!" booklet is now available! CLICK HERE Home - Kidneys Are Sexy

WELCOME TO KIDNEYS ARE SEXY! My name is Paul Noworyta and I had a kidney transplant in 1989. Doctors told me that I might get 10 or even 15 good years out of that kidney before I would need another one; sound familiar? Well, fast-forward 14 years to 2003, and I had become the world's first and only transplant recipient to compete on the professional vert skating circuit (Google me!). I'm now 50 years old, 30 years post-transplant, still flipping and spinning on the BIG vert ramp with that same kidney and I've never felt better! If this sounds like a pretty cool story and you want to learn how to make you kidney last just as long as mine has, or even longer... then you'll probably like my site and love your new kidney even more :-)  May The Good Lord Be With You, Always.

- Paul
