Title: Homedialysis.com INTERVIEWED me, thought you guys might like to take a look.
Post by: Epoman on January 05, 2007, 07:00:24 PM

Homedialysis.com is where I learned a lot about the NxStage machine, in fact they were the reason I pursued NxStage as an option. I was DEAD-SET AGAINST "Daily Dialysis" when I first joined. But the folks over there talked me into it. And here I am on Home Dialysis and loving my FREEDOM. I hate finding pictures of myself to give to media outlets as I have a bad self-image. That's why I gave them a picture with Epokid and Epowife to distract people from my ugly mug.

Here is a link to my "Patient Profile" as they call it. (Interview).

Let me know what you think. :)

That was an awesome article because it was a short description of your experiences on dialysis, your downs, and yet it ended on a positive tone plus credit was given for your past support sites and IHD.

I think your story is a good one (although your introduction on IHD is more fun to read!)
and the picture is really nice. I think you have accomplished a lot - and this site is a good example of that!

Great article.  You are thinking about "nocturnal" dialysis?  You really have changed your tune.
