SINGAPORE - When former national bowler Carl de Vries was diagnosed with kidney disease and needed a transplant, his brother Marc did not hesitate to offer him one of his. Mr Marc de Vries, 45, who is also a former national bowler, said: «He's family. He's my brother. I didn't think of any other thing except to help save him.» Now, about a year after the procedure, his brother Carl, 42, has recovered well enough to compete in April's Singapore Transplant Games, where those who have had an organ transplant come together to compete in various sports. The brothers' journey from sharing their love of sports to sharing a kidney transplant experience was an unexpected one. Carl, who runs a gym and is married with no children, had always led a very active life, playing various racket games, such as tennis and badminton, three times a week and bowling once a week. He was a gold medallist at the 2006 Asian Bowling Championships. In 2018, he underwent a routine health check and found that he had autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The genetic disease is one where multiple cysts form in the kidneys, leading to kidney damage and failure.
