Thank you, O in, for sharing that with us.  I just finished reading your post and the link you gave us.
I was wondering why I wasn't hearing any more from him.  Delightfully expressive person!

"Bob Harris" aka "Old Borris"made the decision to terminate hemodialysis treatment, mainly due to other health conditions seriously jeopardizing upon his ability to enjoy Life. Bob passed away peacefully at Trinity Hospice on Monday, October 17, 2005, approximately 3AM United Kingdom time.

"Old Borris" tripped me out, with his unreal positive attitude about dialysis. At first I could not tell if he was being sarcastic or he was being serious. He saw the positive side in everything including dialysis.

Rest In Peace "Old Borris" your dialysis days are over and you never have to do it again. A fate I am sure we all look forward to, the end of dialysis.

To members here who do not know of "Old Borris" I recommend you read his posts here on this site, the posts will trip you out.

Is there anyway that you can get to read all the posts by a certain member, as I can do with my own posts?  I was trying to reread Old Borris and was only able to find a specific one that I know he had posted in.
I tried doing a search for Old Borris and that didn't work.  Maybe I did it wrong......

I changed the permissions so you can now view "others" profiles like you do your own. So just view "Old Borris" profile and view his messages.
