Irish Farmers Journal podcasts

This is Country Living
Description: Four years ago, life changed for Myles Reilly from Co Longford when he was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease that had already significantly impacted his kidneys. Dialysis three times a week became his new reality as he waited for a transplant. As time passed with no sign of that all-important call, Myles’s wife Helen started looking into a kidney exchange programme. In April of this year, three couples across Ireland and the UK helped each other receive the ultimate life-changing gift – and in this poignant podcast, Myles and Helen share how it changed their lives.
