Donate Life - Saving Joyce

Donate Life - Saving Joyce

Author: Shanna Vavra March 4, 2022 Duration: 46:37

Today on Sense of Soul Podcast we are sending out an SOS! SOS doesn’t only stand for Sense of Soul but for help. Part of our purpose is to be of service and help those in need. Our guest, Joyce Beaudry is in desperate need of a kidney. Her entire family has Polycystic Kidney Disease and are the only known family to have 100% of their members have it. Therefore, no one in her family can donate to her.  

Joyce had a kidney transplant in February 2017, but due to the high antibodies it had from so many blood transfusions, her kidney failed in September 2021 and is now back on dialysis. 

Dialysis is beyond hard on your body and does damage to your heart. Because of this, she had a heart attack this past November. If her heart gets any worse, she will no longer qualify for a kidney transplant. So this is literally a life and death situation for her. Because of her heart attack, her life expectancy could be less than a year if she doesn’t find a live donor. 

If this is something you would consider, go to this website to fill out the questionnaire. https://www.uchealthlivingdonor.org/ When it asks for a recipient, just put her name: Joyce Beaudry

She is a mom and a member of our community here in Aurora, CO. Most importantly she is a beautiful soul! 

If you know someone who is in need of help please email us your requests to have them on as an “SOS” guest at our email senseofsoul@yahoo.com.

Hosted by Shanna Vavra, Sense of Soul is a space for deep conversation about the often messy path toward personal and spiritual understanding. Rather than offering simple answers, this podcast sits with the complexities of healing and growth, drawing from a well of diverse perspectives. Shanna connects with guests from various cultural and spiritual backgrounds, each bringing a raw account of how profound challenges were met with resilience and reframed into a sense of purpose. What you’ll hear in these dialogues are not polished success stories, but genuine narratives about confronting pain, questioning beliefs, and discovering an inner light that often feels hidden. The discussions naturally weave through themes of faith, self-improvement, and education in the broadest sense-learning from life itself. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a thoughtful gathering where the focus is on authentic human experience across different traditions and personal journeys. It’s for anyone curious about the intersection of spirituality and daily life, seeking a sense of connection and reflection through the shared wisdom of others walking a similar path.
