My name is Sarah Ilic.  I have been a renal patient for 25 years due to Lupus SLE which developed into Lupus Nephritis.

 

12 years ago I had to begin haemodialysis and changed over to Peritoneal Dialysis, which I preferred and was my renal replacement therapy for almost 6 years. 
 

I was lucky to have a successful ‘unrelated live transplant’ 7 years ago which has changed my life considerably. 
Six years ago I began volunteering for the KPA and I took up the task of Secretary in October 2014.

 

I live with my husband and grown up daughter and our dog (Dina).  I enjoy  holidaying in Croatia and Bosnia, reading, watching films, listening to music and walking Dina in the park.
