Raymond Finn
Raymond Finn writes about kidney disease from the perspective of a patient who had to learn the system from the inside. Re-Born follows his experience from quiet warning signs and difficult-to-control blood pressure through dialysis, the transplant waiting list, surgery, and the first months of recovery. His account draws on notes and dictation preserved with the help of his wife, Trina Johnson Finn.
Raymond is not a physician. Family, faith, humor, and his experience navigating kidney disease as a Black American man shape the story. He shares the questions he learned to ask, the importance of understanding his own numbers, and the support that helped him make decisions with his care team. His recurring message is simple: get the numbers, know your baseline, protect the engine, and stay in the game.
