Florida Woman Turns To Craigslist For Kidney

Selina Hodge, 28, takes nearly a dozen different medications a day and is limited in her movements because of her dialysis machine.

Diagnosed with kidney failure four years ago, Hodge has already exhausted her family for a new kidney, but they’re either a bad match or the kidney would come with it’s own health issues. She is on a donor waiting list, but it could take several years before a match is found.

“That’s when I turned to Craigslist, because I didn’t know where else to turn,” Hodge said. Selina really just wants to start living her life again. “There’s so much I want to do but, I have to put a pause on things like that because of the dialysis,” said Hodge.

A few people have responded to her Craigslist post. One man wanted to help get the word out, while one nurse said she’ll be tested to see if she’s a good match.
