Show Notes

Roy Allen Bumpers first came to know Lifebanc when he participated in the Lifebanc Stepping For Life shows. Roy was part of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity and helped make that event a success.

Although Roy knew at the time that he had kidney disease, he lived his life and tried to maintain good health. That worked for years, until an unexpected trip to the hospital revealed he would need to begin dialysis treatments immediately.

We continue our conversation with Roy while he receives a dialysis treatment at the Centers for Dialysis Care in Shaker Heights. Listen as he shares some of the obstacles he overcame and what his hopes are for the future.
