 Ed Hearn Plays in Golf Tournament with Alonzo Mourning

On June 7th , Ed Hearn, FSGS patient, Ambassador for NephCure and member of the 1986 World Champion NY Mets, participated in a Golf Tournament hosted by Alonzo Mourning at Trump National Golf Course in Westchester County, NY. NephCure arranged for Hearn, who lives in Kansas, to visit kidney disease patients at Montefiore Hospital in New York and St. Christopher's Hospital for Children in Philadelphia , PA. Many of the patients were pediatric kidney patients and were extremely excited to have a new visitor, especially one with a World Series Ring who could relate to them as kidney disease patients. Ed Hearn conducted an interview with the NY Post for an article that will be available to read by clicking here. While visiting Montefiore, Ed Hearn and NephCure Executive Director, Henry Brehm, met with Dr. Frederick Kaskel, NephCure Scientific Advisory Board member, and his staff to brainstorm the promotion of the upcoming FSGS Clinical Trials.
