Title: Another Brit Joins the Crew
Post by: celtic warrior on May 08, 2008, 12:00:49 AM: Don't rightly know how to go about this, but here goes. To start with,it is not me on dialysis, but my wife (23 years last St Patricks Day).Married that is, not on Dialysis,
I don't want to go into too much detail at the moment, save to say that in February of last Year I very nearly lost her thanks to Goodpastures Syndrome.
Happily, she is still with me although she now has ES RF and Dialyzes 3 times a week. Oh, by the way, my name is Tony and my wife is Maria.
