CHICAGO (CBS) – A Plainfield woman is one step closer to a life-saving surgery after she brought her story to CBS 2 and then to the stands of Wrigley Field.

CBS 2 first told you about Christine Todd two weeks ago.

She has a life-threatening kidney disease and is raising awareness about her urgent need for a transplant.

Last weekend, she took that message to the Friendly Confines with a banner and t-shirts.

Todd said that because of the CBS 2 story, she's received an overwhelming response from people who want to help.

And she has six promising donor candidates being screened to see if they're a match. While they have found leads, it's difficult to find a match because many health factors can disqualify someone from donating. They continue calling on the public for help.
