Feel Good Story: Woman Loses Weight to Be Dad’s Donor

ALL. THE. FEELS.

Back in 2016, Dawn Muhammad hired a personal trainer and worked her butt off (quite literally).  Though she never actually told her family why she was working so hard to lose weight, she did lose 70 lbs.

When Dawn finally did reveal to her family the ‘Why’ of it all, the emotions ran wild!

Dawn lost the weight, not for her health, but her dad’s!

Dawn’s dad, 74 year old Lucious Daniels, had been doing dialysis twice a week due to stage-four kidney failure.

Two years ago when he was diagnosed, that’s when Dawn got tested and found out she while she did have the same blood type, her body mass index (BMI) was too high, and at the time, she was not an option.

After 16 months of hard work and better nutrition, Dawn dropped the pounds so she could be her dad’s kidney donor, and became the PERFECT MATCH!

She finally confessed everything a few months ago, and Dawn and Lucious’ surgeries are scheduled for the end of this week.
