Legendary singer Tina Turner, who died this week at the age of 83 after a long illness, wrote about her history of high blood pressure and kidney disease that led to a kidney transplant.
Turner should be applauded for her willingness to share her medical history just months before she died to publicize the importance of looking after your kidneys.
