So it causes all kinds of problems, and she needs a transplant soon . . . or she could die. Luckily she has a pretty amazing first grade teacher.Her name is Jodi Schmidt, and she recently decided to donate one of HER kidneys . . . got tested . . . and they were a match.
But then Jodi gave her a pink box with a note inside that said, “It’s a MATCH.” She immediately knew what it meant, and started crying. And the school’s principal got the whole thing on video. (Watch it here.)
