Title: Moms hate dialysis too
Post by: lsavatski on December 20, 2010, 01:55:10 PM

Hi group,  I'm a mom of a gorgeous 20 year old who was on dialysis since earlier this year.  Even though she's just gotten a transplant :bandance;, every day (especially MWF--that was her schedule) I think of all those bound to the chair.  Moms think dialysis sucks too.   :puke; 

For now we are dialysis free  :beer1; :yahoo;

And, wishing those still in treatment a fun and interesteing person along side of you   :yahoo; :flower;

Hi Isavatski, welcome to IHD.  I'm so glad you found us.  There are lots of young people on here and Moms too.  The Admin on this site Okarol has a daughter around 22 or 23 that now has a transplant.  You'll have to meet her.  I hope you can talk your daughter into joining.  This place has those on dialysis, those waiting for a transplant and those transplanted.  Seems like our members get a transplant once a month around here.  A good place to be.

Hi Isavatski and I also welcome you to IHD.  It's a great place for anyone who has a connection to the world of renal failure.  I also hope you can get your daughter to spend some time reading the forums, I'm sure there is a lot of info there she can use.  She also could be a great help to some of our younger folks who are in the same situation as she.   :welcomesign;

 :waving; Hi Laura,
Glad you joined us. I have a 25 year old daughter who did 3 years of in-center hemo and has now had a transplant for 4 years. My first post was I love/hate dialysis. We are grateful for it, but it sure is tough to watch your kid go through it. I look forward to your posts. Welcome!

Hi I to am a mom of Kidney child who just joined today. I love the reference to the person sitting in the chair next to the dialysis patient. That is me now again as my child just turned 15 I look forward to your posts on how you stayed positive, I've given up on the grey hair and am going to dye!!!

I want to be that incredible person in the chair next to my son!


Welcome and continued well wishes to your daughter or did I forget already? Anyway Welcome! :shy;
