Hi Cliff,

I am just north of Seattle, too.  I don't yet have kidney failure, but am hoping to hold on to 30% for as long as I can!  This website is extremely supportive and informative.  Everyone on here is helpful, and yes, like family.  Welcome!  :)

Me too - I'm in West Seattle. Mine would be a large caffeinated coffee if it was before noon, decaf after.

We should have a Puget Sound IHD meet up. I know a good pool hall on Capitol Hill.

Yup - they have pretty good food and drink, and bowling if that is more appealing.

 :welcomesign; Cliff.  Looks like you have made friends quickly!  This is a great group of people.  And I think a meet up would be incredible.  There are so many members in that area.   My sister lives in Roy outside of Seattle. I have enjoyed visiting the area and since my husband has worked for the airlines his whole life, a tour of the Boeing plant was a must do for him.   Glad to have you as a part of IHD.  Post often.  :thumbup;
