Summary: James Michael McLester is in need of a life-saving kidney transplant.To know James is to know he loves music. He attended his first rock concert at Tarrant County Convention Center in 1978 at age eleven in Ft. Worth, TX. From that point forward, he knew that is what he was born to do and so he set out to follow his dream to become a rock star. Those were some turbulent days but, through the grace of God, James has reconciled with his family, long-term girlfriend and is a professional drummer/musician with his Christian band SuperNova Remnant, Temple of BOOM with DJ Drue Mitchell of JUCE TV, Manafest, and the worship team at Crossroads Tabernacle Church. However, when James was in his early thirties, he had a near-death experience soon after being diagnosed with end-stage renal disease. It was due to mercury toxicity leaching from the many silver fillings drilled into his teeth at a young age. Fortunately, James has been placed on the list for a kidney transplant at the Texas Transplant Institute in San Antonio. Though lifesaving, transplantation is enormously expensive. A campaign has been established in James’ honor with HelpHOPELive, a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant community for 30 years.
