I think I've seen Sluff and Karol on the National Kidney Foundation Boards. I have tried to register there but had no luck. I think there is something with my security software. Hi Fluffy. Thanks for making me feel welcome!

i am a 51 year old male on dialysis for 3 years now. This is my second time. My brother donated a kidney to me about 13 years ago. I found this site on another site. I had to laugh when i saw what it was called. I hope to meet people from all over to talk about dialysis.
