Table 6:

Media as a means to connect with other donors

You kind of become a part of a little - even though
it’s part of the Internet; kind of a part of a group
that you didn’t even know existed with the organ
donors and so forth. It’s almost like a little
fraternity or sorority or whatever you want to call it.

One of the sort of lingering issues in my
community – by that I mean the donor community
is the follow-up care. It’s very, very inconsistent
across the board and I hear with other conversations
I do have via the Internet, phone calls, and social
media

having to do with kidney donation on YouTube and
on Facebook…. and on LinkedIn.
