Krista’s Story
A Journey of Resilience and Renewal
Krista Dickman’s life is a powerful testament to resilience, faith, and triumph over adversity. Diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at just five years old, she faced countless health challenges with courage and grace. Over the years, she endured complications including retinal detachment and kidney failure.
After an eight-year wait, Krista underwent a rare double organ transplant on Halloween 2001 — receiving both a kidney and pancreas from a young donor, Donio Sanchez. That gift gave her a second chance at life — one she’s cherished and honored ever since.
Finding Strength Through Adversity
Her journey didn’t stop there. In 2005, a devastating car accident left Krista with extensive injuries and led to more than 40 surgeries on her foot. After enduring a stroke and ultimately the amputation of her leg below the knee in 2015, she refused to let those circumstances define her. Instead, Krista embraced her prosthetic leg as a symbol of renewal and strength, discovering new levels of productivity, purpose, and joy.
Giving Back & Empowering Others
Through each trial, Krista discovered her true calling — helping others find hope, healing, and empowerment through life’s most difficult transitions.
Today, she proudly serves as a Certified Volunteer with the Amputee Coalition and the National CPRF Foundation, where she offers advocacy, education, and peer support to individuals navigating limb loss, rehabilitation, and chronic illness.
