Gift of life story

Kyle Hommel

When Kyle Hommel was placed on the kidney transplant waiting list, his family was optimistic that he would not wait long. But after nine grueling months and no options in sight, his mother Caroline decided to take action. She donated her own kidney to save her son’s life. Today, Kyle is healthy and enjoying the music he loves with his band, Sunset Boulevard.
