polycystic kidney disease at age two. At age five, while Casey and Sterling
were recuperating from kidney transplant surgery, they decided to create the
Casey Lee Ball Foundation. As a result of their tireless efforts over the
last six years, several new medicines have made it to market in record time
and are helping to reduce the side effects of kidney transplant medications.
