hi i am 33 yrs old and from South Africa, i had 3 transplants already and not one has worked for me, the first transplant i had was from my mom and it worked for 2yrs, the second one was from my aunt and it rejected immediately, the 3rd one was from my dad and i had it for 3 yrs, then i had a beautiful baby girl she is 3 yrs old.
I am back on dialysis for the last 2 yrs and i hate it, i will be going for the 4th kidney transplant as soon as i am healthy enough. well that is enough about me would like to hear about you! :cheer:

Welcome to our community, Charlene.  So glad that you decided to join us.  It's great to hear about your little girl. (picts???)  You have come to the right place for information, support, and even fun.  Think of IHD as you new family :grouphug; Just take advantage of all this site has to offer - keep reading and keep posting.
