Hi Larry, I love your avatar.  You must have drawn that.  I went to the link and it was 'your' facebook page I think?

Tell us more about this group?

Yeah I kind of messed that first post up but fixed it now. Try and see what happens.

The group is to try and get the word out to African Americans about what is happening in the Renal world.

African American Renal Support Group is for sharing information on Black Americans who are close to renal failure, dialysis or on dialysis or who have had a kidney transplant in the hopes of educating and offering support to the African American Community. Renal failure is the most prevalent among the Black community but we are the least informed with options of dealing with this epidemic. This group is just not for African Americans but all concerned with End Stage Renal Disease.
 So we will see how it goes.

Did you fix the link, because I just clicked on it and got a facebook page.  I'm not on Facebook, so it is unaccessible to me.  What am I doing wrong?

BTW, are you over your cold?
