To whom it may concern,
I'm a 20+ year kidney dialysis advocate here in Denver. A 2nd annual Walk for Kidney Dialysis Patients is planned for May 4th in Omaha NE. It coincides with Warren Buffett's big shareholder meeting. Mr. Buffett owns 40% of the huge kidney dialysis company DaVita through his Berkshire Hathaway company - DaVita's HQ is here in Denver. To say many of us are upset with DaVita's for-profit care is an understatement! This Walk is a protest of that treatment - though a mild protest at that, not much more than handing out flyers and leaving an information packet. However it is felt that this is a newsworthy event - especially considering the history of this field of medicine.
For details, an endorsement of this Walk from a NYT's best-selling author, more in a nutshell, and facts+scandals there is this media webpage that has been put together.
