Goofynina and Epoman - Gone But Not Forgotten

WWW
« on: August 28, 2010, 09:06:50 AM »
My 5th anniversary was yesterday, but i only remembered today.  I could have made a big hullabaloo at dialysis yesterday if I had only remembered!!

I am so grateful that i am still alive.  I am typing this on my job.  So I am grateful that although I lost my job because of my kidney failure, I still have one.

I am so grateful for IHD.  As I suppose, many of you are tired of hearing me say  I came upon IHD just as I was told that I would have to start dialysis shortly.  I was totally traumatised, but as I started to search, I came upon a website where I met a man with a queer name (Epoman) saying that I should visit a website with an equally queer name (I Hate Dialysis).  Well, I took him at his word and was unbelievably helped to get through those early days.  And here i am still!!

I love you all and thank God for this website and for Epoman's vision.  Let's keep his vision alive so that many others can be helped, as I was.


FIVE YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
