Title: Hello everyone, here's my intro...
Post by: PrettyLatina on June 08, 2007, 11:10:35 AM
Hello everyone,

My name is Glenda and I am 32 years old.  I am new to dialysis. I am currently on hemo but I will be changing to PD soon. I have been on dialysis now for 2 1/2 months.  I think it has been the scariest thing I have had to go thru.  I am glad that I found this site.  I hope to meet and make many friends.

Have a great day!            :yahoo;

Welcome to our community.  This is just the place for you to be.  Here there is information (lots of it), support, fun, a place to vent when you need to.  This has become a second family to lots of us.  Looking forward to hearing much more from you.  Let us know how your shift from HD to PD goes.  I am on HD as that is the only type offered in the Caribbean country where I live.  Welcome again!
