Support for Your Kidney Journey
Culturally grounded advocacy and guidance for CKD, dialysis and transplant patients
My Story
I created Thee Heavy Wait after nearly a decade on dialysis and a life‑changing transplant. I know how overwhelming this journey can be — the appointments, the medical language, the fear, the waiting. My work is rooted in lived experience, cultural awareness, and the belief that every patient deserves clarity, dignity, and support.

What You Can Expect
Dominique P.
I want to take a moment to recognize and deeply appreciate the incredible inspiration and support that Antoinette provides. She has a rare and powerful gift for meeting people exactly where they are, identifying their needs, and helping them see themselves in a new light.
Antoinette has an effortless way of helping you recognize your own worth. She empowers you to speak up for yourself, to choose yourself, and to truly love yourself and your body- no matter what stage you’re in. That kind of guidance is transformative. It builds the foundation for self-advocacy and reminds you that you deserve to be heard, respected, and taken seriously- especially in healthcare settings.
Advocating for your own health can be intimidating, particularly when navigating challenges related to weight and physical health. Antoinette helps you work through those self-conscious thoughts, apprehensive feelings, and reconnect with that inner spark we all have. She is motivating, knowledgeable, and intentional in how she helps others push past racial, gender, and socioeconomic barriers that often exist within the healthcare system.
She not only uplifts you but equips you- with the right questions to ask, the confidence to seek answers, and the clarity to understand what you deserve.
I truly cannot recommend her enough. Antoinette doesn’t just support you- she empowers you to see your value and take ownership of your health, your voice, and your journey.
