B.T. Washington retired from United States Air-force after thirty years of serving his country. A true hero with a big heart, he spent more time in his retirement volunteering to help others, than himself. He knew he had a kidney problem, but he avoided dealing with how serious it was until he had a crisis. Together with his wife, Gemma, B.T. took up the challenge to wage war against chronic kidney disease while continuing to enjoy his life with his antique cars, prized hens, and his love for Motown music.
