500 should call for a celebration!!!!!!!!!
I found this site after I had already started dialysis and it has been so helpful.
If I'd found it before dialysis I'd been so better informed and prepared.
I have never ever got on a message board before this one and when I get
on this one I feel like I'm checking to see how friends are doing because when
I'm not on I find myself wondering about everyone.  So many of you have been
through some real tough experiences and are so strong and inspiration to
others.  I appreciate all the listening, ideas, suggestions, encouragement and
support for each other here and Epoman's long, long hours and dedication
to make this site what it is.   Thanks for accepting me as a part of it.
Just wanted to say that.

Yes I am excited. What to here something scary? if we continue our growth tread like we have for the last 4 months, we will have over 1,200 members by this time next year. And the number of posts will be amazing, if we continue like we have been the last several months, we will have over 65,000+ posts by this time next year.  :o Imagine our strength as a community then.  :o

Oprah and Ellen here you come.  Then you can do Martha Stewart with renal friendly recipes.  Then the View to debate some renal ideas with those women. Then on to Good Morning American with I Hate Dialysis.com, and the Today Show.   :bestwishes;
