NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — I'm following up this morning about a little boy I first brought you as My Hero in May of this year.
Now 4-year-old Everett Drewes was a child ambassador for Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Steeplechase this year as he continues to manage a rare disease.
Everett has Eagle-Barrett Syndrome. He is living without any kidneys at all. Last summer, his father donated one of his kidneys to him on his third birthday, but sadly it failed.
Everett needs your help. Doctors say he is healthy enough to get a new kidney.
If you or someone you know is interested, you need to have type A or Type O blood, be 18 to 55 years old and be in good health.
If this is something you're interested in go to Vanderbilt Health and search for the "Living Donor Interest Form."

You'll love her and you'll love to hate her! Meet Trashley: the bad girl of Nashville littering. She stars in a new campaign that's a throwback to an anti-litter movement from years past. Her role has been reimagined by NDOT as a fast-paced, Dukes of Hazzard-style wrecking ball of a lady. You'll find yourself cracking up as you meet the actress behind Trashley and hear how she landed the role of Queen of Trash.
