Title: Saying Hi
Post by: justaranidae on August 23, 2007, 08:04:16 AM: Hello everyone! My name is Leslie and I am a caregiver for my spouse who has been on dialysis for two years. He isn't interested in using a computer but I do need to find out information for him sometimes - not just what they tell him at the dialysis center.

Thanks for having me. :)

Welcome! You can use the search bar to locate topics that have come up in the past, or just post a question.
I found it really helpful to read many of the posts because, as a caregiver, much of the information was given to my daughter at the dialysis clinic, and I was always trying to find out what was going on!
Best of luck to you both!
