“One moment I was perfectly healthy, and the next, I found out my kidney was on the verge of failing,” Jojo explained.

She was diagnosed with a 1.6cm kidney stone obstructing her urethra, causing a severe infection and pus accumulation in her left kidney. Her doctor successfully removed the stone and inserted a stent to prevent further complications. Jojo was informed that without this intervention, her kidney might have failed within a week or two.
