and  also through his journey and experience with Nxstage Here:  www.ilovenxstage.com

He added to his story on the one thread entry as he went along.  It is along thread to read. Unfortunately he no longer can update us, although I am sure he is watching us grow.

Sorry - maybe I am stupid, but the I read his intro post and it stops at whether or not he will get his voice back.  Then he says he updated but I cannot find those updates.  Could you copy the link and send it to me.  I've tried and tried but without success.
Thanks

I believe the last update was Dec. 17, 2006 (my birthday!)  :-\
Sadly Epoman passed away nearly 2 months later http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=2946.0  :'(

Thank you Okarol but when I click on that link it takes me to Goofynina and her tribute to him.  I still can't find the continuation of his intro's. HELP

His introduction is posted here http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=25.msg52#msg52 in it's entirety, 1st post, and it begins 08/13/05 and ends 12/17/06.
To answer your question though, he did get his voice back. I spoke to him for over an hour right after my daughter's transplant in January 2007.
There are a few more threads that tell the recent events prior to his death here:
Dec. 2006 http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=2058.0 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goofynina & Epoman MEET AT LONG LAST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dec. 2006 http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=2083.0 Amazing gifts I received from some of the IHD members. I am speechless.
Jan 2007 http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=2369.0 **=== RSNHOPE.ORG Presents: The 2007 8th Annual Renal Teen Prom.===** PICS!

hashim50 - it's YOUR turn to post an introduction!

I would tell my story but its boring and not unlike so many others here.  If you know Warren Zevon's song - My Sh*ts F*cked Up - that's my story. You can Google it and hear it for yourself. Enjoy!

We don't find anyone's story boring.  Really we don't.  But we do like to know a little bit about your situation.  Like, are you on dialysis?  Failed transplant (like me)?  Caregiver?  You get the idea.  We all do it in the Intro section and you can be quite brief if you must, but I love reading everyone's story and don't find any of them boring.  Details are just fine.

We want to get to know YOU, not just your kidney story. So please take a minute and give us a glimpse! Epoman would like it. He loved intros.

That would be cool to watch Sluff.

i think it would be an inspiring story. Not just for people with kidney disease, but other illnesses.

Needs to be on the Lifetime network in a movie. now that one id would watch.

If it's on Lifetime, I would have to reprogram TV. That's one channel I deleted along with the shopping channel, oprah channel, spanish channels and any other channel that isn't guyish  ;D

Wouldn't network TV be better or TNT (they like drama). Ned it on a channel that has maximum exposure and viewers as possible.I could also se it on TLC, Discovery health (wish I still had that one)

Hope for the best, but except what you can get. :2thumbsup;
