HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) – It has been a tough road for Harrisburg High School senior Saderiah Wallace.
She had to endure the disappointment of two kidney transplant cancellations, but things have changed dramatically and she is looking forward to graduation this weekend.
Wallace received her kidney transplant before the beginning of the new year. During the surgery, she had a dream.
“All I kept hearing was the kidney is working, the kidney is working,” she said.
As soon as she woke up, she got the good news.
“I’m like, are you serious? And they are like yes, you have a beautiful kidney and it’s working and everything,” Wallace said.
