Kriss had taken a break from fostering for a while, as her kidneys had failed. Fast forward to last month, she successfully had a kidney transplant and after she was done healing, she immediately wanted to foster.

She is one of the strongest people we know and are so grateful to the donor and their family, saving Kriss' life! If anyone deserved this, it was her!

We are so grateful that you are part of our Family! We couldn't do what we do without you, and want the whole world to know how amazing you all are!

Words cannot describe how thankful, truly and utterly grateful we are for you Kriss!
