I am feeling a lot better tonight- i went to treatment and i kind of just started to cry in the lobby- this lady ginger whos husband is on dialysis helped me and talked to me. I just think I try so hard to not complain or cry that sometimes I forget that it is OK to sometimes do just that! Well my treatment went well and I'm home now so all is well- take care everyone and don't hesitate to rant away to me ;)

That is one of my problems, too. I have spent too much time taking care of everyone else and now almost forget how to cry and let it out. Glad you are doing a little better today. We are always here for you :cuddle;

Glad you are feeling better. :waving;

It is hard to find time to cry. Especially if you have other people to worry about. I think kidney patients are a rare breed. Hang in there! You are handling things well. :)

Good to hear.

Hi Karen
Sometimes it helps to have a good cry. I'm glad Ginger talked
to you and so glad you are feeling better tonight.
Hope you have a great weekend.

Glad to hear it hun.

Hey Karen - I'm glad you had a good treatment!!! :)
Sometimes it's easy to forget that what we're dealing with is MASSIVE... I know as time has gone on it's just part of my life and, well, almost becoming "normal" to have my tuesday/thursday/saturday appointments with the machine.... And also it's a lot to deal with specially when you just start while also trying to keep it together for friends and family.. but hey, sometimes a good cry is what you need to relieve the stress and get it off your chest so to speak. Don't feel silly or bad for it.. it's normal and I think all people either doing, have done or with a loved one going through dialysis/kidney failure (eg: Ginger) has some idea of where you're at.
*hugs*
