Effects of an Illness

I am blogging this for a childhood friend.  Her grandson has this disease  and it's taken a big toll on the family as a whole.  It affects his blood pressure and damages the kidneys. I can only imagine the pain this young one is going through. I did not know anything about this disease so I did my research and now sharing it with you. 

   In many parts of the world, IgA nephropathy is the most common form of glomerulonephritis--a disease that damages the tiny filtering units of the kidney, called glomeruli. The damage caused by IgA nephropathy results from abnormal deposits of a protein called "IgA" in the glomeruli

Please if you will, take a look at this site and if we all can give to help this family.
