struggle on the highway, told KCRA.

The Skydive Lodi Parachute Center has had several fatalities in recent years, including a 62-year-old Colorado woman whose parachute failed to deploy on a jump, according to KCRA.

Between 1999 and 2018, there have been 16 deaths involving people jumping from planes that took off from the parachute center."My new kidney changed not only my life but my life's work," said Mr. Jones, who has been an artist for two decades. "My whole health journey became part of my artistic process and my daily experiences with medication and dialysis were incorporated into my artwork."

Mr. Jones has chronicled his health journey in his artwork in a wide range of techniques including a montage of repurposed dialysis equipment and medication packages. "I was physically, financially, emotionally, spiritually and even artistically tied to my disease treatment," he said. "When I was ill and waiting for a new kidney, my artwork reflected the extreme dependency I experienced."

But Mr. Jones' life, and his art, changed dramatically on April 29, 2015 when he received a kidney transplant at Loyola University Medical Center.
