Former NBA star Nate Robinson, famously known as ‘Kryptonate’ for his electrifying dunking prowess, has made a heart-wrenching revelation: but he has a difficult task to perform because Robinson’s Struggle for a Kidney is based on the running out of time, and he has to get a new kidney. The former NBA basketballer who played his last games 2016 said “living without a stomach” is a death sentence.
Nate Robinson’s Struggle for a Kidney
During his honest chat with Mail Sport, Robinson let out everything dooming him, as he unveiled the true picture of his condition. “I fear that the clock is really ticking if nothing done,” he disclosed with a hint of an emotion. He is now in peril on the edge of a cliff, the only rope of his life is the thread of machine dialysis that can only relieve him of poison by enduring the agonies of the cleanse, a process that confines him in hospitals beds for days The Lone Ranger himself said that apart from this particular routine, he wouldn’t be able to make it a fortnight at all.
A health problem he endured with the New York Knicks in 2006 finally came to a head and, thus, shattered him when he was in the middle of his duties. Nephropathy caused by the hypertension that he failed to control, impeded his longevity. The warrior in question commenced his battle, may be against the world he was fighting from the inner space, and he suddenly chose to step into the sunlight in the year of 2022 which gave away the flag that posthumously healed millions silently struggling with similar problems.
Pondering the basketball hall of fame, and his magnanimous career as an NBA player, one realizes that Robinson’s influence stretched beyond his height. He was statuesque standing at 5’11”; he flew into multiple skies to reclaim the Slam Dunk Contest throne three times, setting in place wonderment. From the New York City courts to the glam of Hollywood, his trip caught rhythm with movie franchises, putting all the seals to the basket that left his name imprinted with the brand.
On top of his NBA court Robinson carried his talent across continents encompassing Israel, Venezuela and Lebanon and to every each locale the mark remained inestimable. His career statistics, whatever numbers the will express, are not capable of reflecting the exceptional dynamics as well as his soulfulness during the game.
Robinson keeps flogging against time. He is calling out in more than basketball circles—the idea of humanity being tied to empathy and community which we are born with. Amidst the hardest times, his will is still strong; a reflection of a resilient ‘self’ that is testing-tradition under uncertainty.
