Today is exactly 1 year ago, or 260 D sessions with Nxstage !!!!!
And I'm still here!!!

And today was a gorgeous, sunny, dry day!!!!

Oh how I hate D, most people in 'white coats', and people who refuse dead family members to leave their usefull organs behind etc.

But after 2nd time D since '98, and 'sitting on the machine' I'm sure happy to be: still alive!

Congrats! 

In exactly a week, it'll be my 2nd anniversary of starting NxStage.  Dialysis is rotten, but I think NxStage gives us a bit of our life back.

Good job!!  I agree dialysis is a pain but NxStage makes it easier. We are on our second year also. Hope to see all of us in another year too.

Way to go, Cas!  :2thumbsup;

PS: We only did NxStage for 2 and a half years. Last night Carl said that doing dialysis was not as bad for him as the Lyme disease was for me. I guess it is all about perspective.  :2thumbsup;
