i don't know if anyone has noticed, but lately there has been alot of tv programs that have metioned either kidney transplant or dialysis.  i started noticing it about 3 weeks ago.  i wonder if people are starting to become more aware of kidney disease.  just a thought.

I have also noticed it.  On Gray's Anatomy and  House.  House also brings Lupus up alot.   I wish on all these shows someone would come up with the cure.

You will probably notice more transplant articles in magazines and newspapers. The National Kidney Foundation tries to raise awareness before the transplant games every two years.
