Our politicians are about to be put to the test - a urine
test - and with good reason.
It's World Kidney Day on Thursday and our MPs are being
offered free checks in Parliament to highlight a problem that
affects an estimated one in ten New Zealand adults.
Kidney disease ended the career of All Black Joeli Vidiri but as we
know it doesn't discriminate.
Young MAF officer Natalie Ericsen doesn't have the same profile as
Joeli but the two have a common bond.
Matt Chisholm from Close Up discovers they are not letting
it slow them down.
