Anacortes Senior College

Join retired physical therapist and two-time kidney transplant recipient Beth Badour for an engaging three-week interactive class on the vital role of the kidneys in health and disease. Participants will learn how to keep their kidneys healthy, recognize early signs of kidney disease, and gain a deeper understanding of testing, treatment options, dialysis, and transplants.

Drawing from both her professional background as a physical therapist and her personal journey through two kidney transplants, Beth will share how she transformed from feeling like a victim to becoming a victor in her own life. Each class includes engaging discussion, practical education, and opportunities for audience participation.

The series will conclude with ways to raise awareness for those awaiting kidney transplants, including how to support kidney patients through community engagement and social media advocacy.
