After suffering with renal disease for many years, 62-year-old Alan Milam is hoping to find a kidney donor before being forced to start dialysis.

He’s gone through steroid therapy, immune suppression and other treatments, all of which have had negative side effects.Milam said he’s been on the transplant waiting list at hospitals in Birmingham and Atlanta for nearly a year. The average wait time for a kidney for his blood type,Type O-positive, is 5-10 years.Ideally, he needs a kidney from a living donor.
Milam holds his wife, Marie Milam, of nearly 39 years close. The two are both facing their own health battles. Marie Milam has been battling stage 4 colon cancer since September 2020. After serving the community with the Montgomery fire department for decades, he’s now hoping someone will find it in their heart to help him.
