Four-time Eclipse Award-winning owner Ken Ramsey said he's scheduled for a kidney transplant June 20.
In May Ramsey discussed his health challenges with BloodHorse and said that a donor was needed. Ramsey recently passed along the update to his condition, noting that a donor had been found and that he's scheduled for surgery Thursday at Weill Cornell Transplant Center at New York-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City.
"I've passed all my tests and my donor has passed all his essential tests," Ramsey said. "I will be the oldest kidney transplant they've ever done. The (United States) record is 84 and I'm going to be 88, seven months, and 17 days (Thursday).
"My gratitude and thanks to all of the people who have helped make this possible."
