A Runner's Kidney Surgeons at St. Joe’s Support Master’s Athlete Craig Thompson as he Donates a Kidney to His Mom, Cathie, and Returns to Compete on a Global Stage.
“We can’t say enough about the care we received: from mom’s early diagnosis and monitoring, to the testing we underwent together; the conversations, education, counseling and the transplant surgery itself.
