Welcome to our community!  I see that you have already checked us out, so I don't have to convince you that this is the best site for information, support and encouragement.  In fact, you would soon realize that this is a genuine family :grouphug; , so keep reading and keep posting.

Hello darmstead38 and welcome to IHD.  I'm so glad you found us.  We have a lot of fun here learning  and venting together.  I like what you said about being alive but not liking dialysis.  That is the truth.  I wish there was an easier to stay alive.

Looking foreward to your posts.
