About me
Hello, I'm Lorenzo "Carrotz" Asentista Jr, a Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patient from the Philippines. I've been living with CKD for five years, a condition where the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter waste and excess fluids from the blood. To manage my condition, I undergo dialysis, a life-saving treatment that performs the essential functions of the kidneys.
My journey with CKD has inspired me to spread awareness about this condition and the critical role of dialysis in managing it. Your support and donations can help me reach more people, provide valuable information, and offer hope to those affected by CKD. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of many.
