A WOMAN from the district with just nine per cent kidney function says a donation for a kidney transplant would make a perfect Christmas gift for her.
Alyson Symons faces an anxious wait over Christmas for a kidney transplant after an original transplant through her father David in January 2001.
The 36-year-old, of Moor Lane, Addingham, was put on the waiting list for a transplant on August 22 and says a donor would make her Christmas.
Miss Symons, who works part-time as a counter clerk at Otley Post Office, Nelson Street, first suffered from Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP), a rare condition caused by a malfunctioning immune system which leads to the blood vessels becoming inflamed, when she was ten.
