- "This is Kidney Disease... This is Life" - Episode 3 - Aron Eisenberg
We had the chance to catch up with Aron while in Los Angeles back in June, if you're a Star Trek fan, you may know him as "Nog" in Star Trek: Deep Space 9.
The Forever is Tomorrow Foundation is launching an ongoing web series that will highlight current patients, telling their story and how they have dealt with their kidney disease. With this series we set out to bring hope and inspiration to current patients as well as show that kidney disease does not discriminate in who it affects and it is a disease that is closer to everyone than they realize.
Look for more episodes in the very near future and more to follow as we grow our resources to be able to focus more energy on filming and releasing greater amounts of content to raise awareness, educate the public and support current patients and their loved ones with inspiration and hope!
The Forever is Tomorrow Foundation is setting out to raise awareness for kidney disease, while educating the public and giving patients a place for inspiration and hope in their fight with kidney disease.
Rest well in the divine treasury aron
Adam Yanes Captain Nog forever
RIP
May you rest forever in the Divine Treasury, Nog.
Aron, a grand adventure over now.
Shaka when the walls fell.
Your fans, those that loved you, their eyes wet.
Aron, on the ocean.
Aron, at rest.
Awe 😭
😭
Beautiful.
Amen.
WOW! WELL SAID!!!
I have a friend that is one of the LONGEST LIVING Kidney Transplant/Home Dialysis recipient in the WORLD And did a lot of stuff with Aron because of this!
I am not an organ donor, but because of Aron, I will go to the DMV and change that tomorrow. RIP my good man. I have told you in person but I don't think you will really know how much you have touched my life. Thank you!
Did the same.
@@Special_Tactics_Force_Unit i did it when i applied for my provisional licence, dint think any different i just did it without even think about it
As much as I respect, love, and miss Aaron, do some research on hospitals letting organ donors die prematurely, when there is still hope for recovery. Quite a few whistleblowers have stepped forward. In the end, they are for profit corporations.
despite how much good i could possibly do, i just cannot. already, there are bits of me left behind around the world. i just cannot condone even more bits of me out there, living on past the death of everything that makes up "myself" is gone.
however, i would not be adverse to sharing bits of myself while i am still alive.
perhaps it's the one aspect of myself i allow myself to be outright selfish in. i'll give it more thought, and see if i cannot get around this aversion. if aron's donor thought as i did, we wouldent have had a character that personally touched me as much as nog did.
you see, i also joined the military. despite being in the combat arms, i am not the kind of person you generally associate with such service (not many computer nerd grunts, you know?) i also had a leg injury which put me into a deep depression. and to be honest, i've never really recovered from that depression.
but, i'll think about becoming a donor. despite my aversions.
@@chriskoschik391 That comment is full of "FEAR AND IGNORANCE" and don't you dare accept blood, platelets, or organ donation for you or your children should you ever need them. Disgusting. And you're trying to spread that fear and ignorance and get people you don't know to also refuse to donate organs they will no longer need? Your mom must be SO proud of you. Waste of oxygen.
He is a true member of starfleet
And he truly represents the positive ideas of Star Trek as envisioned by Gene Roddenberry.
RIP Aron, may you LLAP!!
Poor guy got airlocked. Oh that is BSG.
R.I.P Aron, you've empowered and inspired many souls..
Rest in peace Aron. Tears are flowing
He might a have been small, but he had a BIG heart.
To absent friends.
R.I.P Aron
Far too sweet a soul to be gone so soon. Proud to be an organ donor.
“Captain Nog, our shields are failing. What are your orders Captain?” 😢we will never get to see that opening for the follow up season of Deep Space Nine.
I'm gonna have to see if there are Trek novels featuring Captain Nog
Had that same thought today! There goes the Captain Nog idea, among other things of course.
That was never gonna be a thing, anyway. They were doing a mock episode write-up for the documentary.
tigerbread78 Idk about him being Captain but his character is continued in the book series.
I do not think he had it in him to be a Captain.
I hadn't seen this until now. The feeling of watching this today is bittersweet.
This guy had a heart of gold. Passion for life was his hallmark. Much love to his wife and kids and the foundations he supported.
Goodbye good man. I will always remember that incredible moment when Nog explained to Sisko why he wanted to join Starfleet. It was such an incredible acting moment that I felt the gut punch of its intensity and genuineness. I could relate. You were a solid actor and because of your work, I will remember you the rest of my days.
Rest in peace, Aron ❤️
To absent friends
Fly among the stars,,, I wish I had your attitude in the face of such adversity. I watched some of your podcasts and you struck me as such a kind soul. Rest in peace.
What a positive outlook on life he had.
😢😢😥😢😢😭😭😭😭 im so sad , star trek is so beautiful, and he is one of many who made it much more
Rest in peace, Aron. We will miss you.
R.I.P Aron. You deserve it. I hope you see Jenny again
Farewell Aron. What a wonderful and grateful outlook you had on life, despite a lifetime of illness. You make me want to be a better person and be grateful for what I have. You may have left this work too soon but you’ll be immortal as long as people watch and love DS9. RIP!
RIP Aron. May you walk in the light of the Prophets
he is in the divine treasury . but the Prophets smile on him too
amazing man....this is the first time I have watched him speak as himself and it really touched my heart....and he is right...his acting career has reached so many people...thank you aaron for taking the time to talk about this subject...xx
My wife needs a kidney, I stepped up to donate but my blood type is on the opposite end of the stick. After having watched this, I am grateful to still have her and Ive decided to stick with it and do the only thing I can--paired exchange. Watching this video has only strengthened me in my efforts to support her.
Thank you, Aron. You have truly touched my heart.
Incredible personality! His legency will live on with his portrayal of Nog!
Hope ST:Picard will include a memorial in the series for Aron!
Rest in Peace, my man.🖖🏾
You were the brightest star in the Star Trek galaxy.
Thank you for the good memories, Aron.
I learned a lot with you and Nog.
To absent friends.
Rest in Peace.

🖖👽
Aron did a lot with his short life!
Baruch Dayan Emet. Rest well, Aron.
*melanybaggins:* This is such sad news! I join you in your blessing for Aron. Baruch dayan ha emet.
Rest in peace Aron. God bless your sweet soul 🙏🏻
Sleep well Aron. We miss you.
My favorite from DS9. Would love to meet him someday.
Now I never will. It hurts to learn he passed over the weekend, 09/21/19. Great actor and inspiring to do and be your best.
R.I.P Aron. You left this world way to early. But a better world thanks to you!
Still hard to believe he is gone he just twitted just a few days ago.
A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP
Thomas Reinfelder. That sounds familiair and wonderful. Leonard Nimoy a.k.a. Spock in his last tweet??🤔👌🏽
@@IndomitableT you're right. His last poem burned in since he started to his last voyage.
Well said and true enough
rip greatest of ferengi the great treasury is all yours now
May the prophets guide you on your journey through the divine treasury.
And may they line your pockets with latinum
RIP
People like Aron were the reason I signed up to be an organ donor years ago. From what I'm reading in the comments, so many of you are signing up to be donors. Aron, that special soul is so proud of each and every one of you.
Rest in peace sir😢
RSVP, Aron.
Born with one kidney that didn't work very well, plus he was adopted, and still went on to have a family and a cool career. Such a nice guy, gone too soon.
May you rest in peace and I will donate
Amazing, he was born in the first few daysof 1969, I was born in the tip of Dec of 1969. We grew up with same cartoons and I wish I could have met him. Never got to. Rip buddy, I will always love DS9 and nog.
We lost an amazing Human with such a great attitude and outlook. R.I.P. Aron. World needs more kind giving souls such as yourself and we will achieve greatness, you are showing us the path my friend, Thank You so much!.
RIP nog. U touched our hearts and became a valued member of the star trek world. The universe will not be the same without ur take on the rules of acquisition
Rest well Aron
Yeah, you did influense and bring a lot of joy to millions just through Deep space nine and the character Nog. Seeing this interview you seem like an inspiring person as well. RIP Aron.
I'm so glad my wife and I are or on the 'donor list' by having that recorded on out drivers' licenses. 😍
Wonderful guy, God speed Aron.
Sounds like his mom had a BIG heart as well.
Gawd damnit!! He was such a blessed man
RIP thanks for your great acting, character and work. Everyday is a gift....condolences to your family....
Aaron your mother is an example of an incredible and wonderful woman, and she raised an incredible and wonderful man. Rest in peace.
😢I will forever miss him and call him brother 😢
I loved him on ds9 and I was very sad to hear Aron had passed but the more I learn about is life all I can think is what a top chap !
Why'd you have to leave Aron? Your absence will be very noticeable. Very noticeable. Man, I feel sad you're gone man.
Thanks for inspiring, Aron. Always love you in DS9.
Wow!
RIP Aron. We miss you.
"I was an orphan. Got adopted by parents who discovered a fatal congenital defect that required transplants, but here's what's funny... Most people aren't as fortunate."
Rest in peace my friend. You made my childhood great much love.
Rip
I love that last comment rest well in the divine treasury I’ll perfect! We all love you Aron! You had a difficult and trying life but I’m also very unique and exciting one as well rest in peace we love you
dang brother...ds9 was you..its why i watched
Rest Well, Aron!
Bless Aron, his friends and family. What a great guy!
May the great Exchequer of the Galaxy find nothing but profits on your balance sheets and grant you first class tickets to the divine treasury...
..hearing Arons story makes anyone humble and appreciate the health we all take for granted! I was a big Nog Ferengi fan and I know for a fact hes in heaven now!
What a humble and grateful person! Rest in peace, Aron. You won't be forgotten!
you touched us more than you'll even know and that 's awful, but you found so much beauty in life and for that you lived truly a full one. Rest easy Aaron, the divine treasury is yours to have.
Oh, when he said "opportunities" I was back in DS9. Brilliant actor. RIP.
Thank you Aron for bring so much joy to many people. Just from hearing his interviews as well as watching Star Trek Deep Space Nine we know we lost a great man who changed the world for millions of people with his heart. Rest well man and sending positive vibes to his family.
Thanks for your RIPPLES in my life Aaron. I STILL love & watch your show. DEEP SPACE NINE. You were such a good actor and make me laugh every time I watch you. Your RIPPLES will continue forever,. Great job. GOD SPEED.!!!
I didn't know much about Aron outside of his role as Nog. Since his passing, all I've read and seen are examples of him being an inspiration to others, a friend to any fan that stumbled across him and a fine example of what it means to be a good human being. I've been an organ donor since the day I turned 18, and I hope that when I go (not anytime soon, please!), two good people like Aron each get one good kidney from me.
RIP to my favorite Ferengi, and RIP to his brilliant portrayer, Aron Eisenberg.
Rest well Aaron. You truly brought Nog to life. You are immortal in the hearts of your fans.
Rest in Peace my friend..
Warp speed Aron!
Thanks for great memories!
😇
Rest In Peace
respect .....RIP good guy
The 90s were the worst period of my life. I was not happy at all. But there were a few bright spots that were a distraction for me.
One of those was Deep Space 9. I remember not liking Nog at first but his character arc was so good and I ended up liking him a lot.
Thanks for being part of DS9 Aron.
He lead an incredibly grateful life, how wonderful....man the world is a lesser place without him.
YOU inspire thee F@#$% out of me, I had bigger hero's in DS9, but by the end of it, I REALLY found Nog to be my favorite, rest in peace my friend. God takes care of people like you. No doubt your in a good place.
Aaron, what a treasure you were....and we were all the richer for you being in our lives once a week.
See you, space cowboy
He seemed so young when he started on DS9 so freaking intelligent as kid on DS9 , , was struck down at ONLY 50 years old , after he survived so much in his life , , he became an adult , made a family, , , , just snuffed out at the mid-point of a human lifetime , , , , it hurts realizing it , , , Rest in Peace AE , , ,taken way too soon 😞
Such an inteligent good guy. Nog was wonderful on DS9, that episode the siege at AR558 When nog lost his leg was intense for him, but he wanted so much to be proud of his starfleet uniform and tried to not show any weakness. In the end sadly he suffered with P.T.S.D, and vic fontain the hollow sweet character helped him so much to walk without his cane. He admitted in the end he was afraid. Really emotional piece for nog that was. Im so pleased the writers gave him some great material. I love the episode Treachery, faith and the great river, whare nog gets chief o brian the part for the Defiant by going round all different people trading things to get the part for the defiant in time. Using chief o brian's clearance code to get things. Brilliant episode that nog shined so bright. The great material continum, sadly missed aron, you will always be remembered through trek fans who know you from DS9, and new trek fans who watch DS9. Such a lovable character. Aron you were a good actor to. Lastly i will say R.I.P Aron Eisenburg, all the sailors on The Great River will sadly miss your great trading ability. In starfleet but still a ferengi. 👍.
RIP Aron. I've been a fan since I first saw you on DS9.
I'm in renal failure too. I do hemodialysis. I go into the treatment center 3 times a week for 4 hour each day. Been doing it for 4 years now.
God bless you. You have become a role model of hope for better DAY
as a big fan of ds9 and loved nog i just heard of his passing and came to youtube for answers and found this video. this video made me sign up as a donor for when i die. rip aron and thanks for helping me trough some tough times with your portrayal of nog.
Rest easy, Captain Nog. Second star to the right, sir.
Thanks Aron for the character nog he was one of my favourites in DS9 you will be missed god bless you and your family 🖖
Such a sweet soul. Rest In Peace, Aron x
I’m proud to say that I’ve been an organ donor since I first got my drivers license
He was a prince amongst humans.
RIP Aron. Bless you!
Rest In Power,Aron.
A truly great man.
