Renowned singer Freddie Jackson, known for hits such as “You Are My Lady” and “Have You Ever Loved Somebody,” has shared with his fans that he has been diagnosed with kidney disease. In a video posted on social media, the 67-year-old singer expressed his openness and resilience in facing this new chapter in his life. Jackson, who has dominated the music charts with multiple No. 1 hits, announced a partnership with the National Kidney Foundation to raise awareness and support for others affected by the condition.
Chronic kidney disease involves a gradual loss of kidney function, requiring treatment to slow down the progression of kidney damage and potentially leading to a need for kidney transplant or dialysis. The CDC estimates that a large number of adults in the US have chronic kidney disease, with many unaware of their condition.
By sharing his personal experience and partnering with the National Kidney Foundation, Jackson aims to raise awareness and advocate for better outcomes for individuals with kidney disease. Fans and supporters have shown their love and encouragement to the singer, who expressed his gratitude for their support during this challenging time. With his platform and the support of his fans, Jackson hopes to make a positive difference in the lives of those affected by kidney disease.
