Thank goodness for having two kidneys! It also means that living donation can happen. Yep, someone donates one of their kidneys while they are still alive. An incredibly selfless act that saves the lives of others. #KidneyHealthWeek

While we can live with just one kidney, there's good reason why we have evolved to have two - which reinforces the importance of taking good care of them, as @BrookeHuuskes explains | now.latrobe/kidneys #KidneyHealthWeek

90% of kidney function can be lost before symptoms appear. The only way to diagnose an underlying condition of chronic kidney disease is via testing in a pathology laboratory.
Take this test from @KidneyHealth to see if you’re at risk.
