Steven ‘Cojo’ Cojocaru Talks About His Kidney Transplants
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008Cojo before and after his kidney transplants
Steven Cojocaru spoke with Mary Hart recently about his kidney transplants and his difficult recovery.
Cojocaru had to undergo a second kidney transplant after the first one failed. A friend donated the kidney the first time, and mom did the second.
Cojo is promoting his new book, Glamour, Interrupted: How I Became the Best-Dressed Patient in Hollywood. It hits shelves tomorrow.
“I didn’t expect to be so candid in this book. I really didn’t. I didn’t know where I would go with this book. I know that before it started, I got very emotional and very afraid. I was also on steroids. And I was a crazy person. You cannot make lucid decisions when you are on steroids.”
Cojo says he reacted badly with the steroids, which caused him to slip into a deep depression.
“I had a huge emotional fallout. There was such a dark streak. I’m so ashamed of the way I treated my parents, the most gentle, angelic people in the world. I was like a dragon. I was spewing blood and fire. The slightest thing would set me off. And I felt guilty. There were huge guilt issues.”
He adds that he was afraid he would lose his career but support from a few celebrity friends helped ease his mind and boost his spirits.
“To get a personal phone call from [Sarah Jessica Parker] that was so heartfelt, elegant and lovely — I don’t think she realizes how much that meant…Renee Zellweger sent me a balloon. I know that sounds simple, but I can’t tell you how, in a dark moment, it put such a smile on my face.”
Cojohopes to raise awareness on organ donating so that people in need don’t have to wait years for a transplant.
“What I’ve experienced is so powerful. I’ve seen the worst, but I’ve also seen the best. … I’m not making any proclamations that I’m going to save the world. I do want to shake things up, and I want to make people aware of kidney disease.”
