LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) - - A Louisville teen is in need of two new kidneys and Tuesday there was an organ donor registry drive to try and make that happen.
Austin Hoyt, 14, was only 12 when he found out he had a chronic kidney disease and both of his kidneys were severely damaged.
Austin has been on the organ transplant list for over a year and is on dialysis every night as he sleeps.
Tuesday people were encouraged to come to the Highview Fire Department and register to be an organ donor so that they can help out Austin and others like him.
