I feel really bad about this. I joined this site nearly 2 years ago I think and I just realized tonight that I never introduced myself. I have no excuse for this, so all I can say is sorry.

My name is Cathleen and I have been on dialysis since May 31, 2010. I am working on getting on the transplant list. I'm 44 years old and married for just over 2 years to a wonderful man. No children but many neices and nephews.  :thx;

Welcome from behind the curtain, Cathleen.  Now that you've 'arrived',  hopefully you'll share more of your own dialysis story (modality, etc).   Thanks for "joining" in the conversation !

Naughty, Cathleen.  Naughty, naughty, naughty.  But we will forgive you if you promise to post more often.  LOL!

Well Cat I'd spank you for being so naughty but a) you are happily married and b) you'd probably enjoy it!!

Seriously though don't feel bad - the best part is that you've posted now and said hello!! Hopefully just lurking around the board, reading posts and stuff over the past couple of years, has helped you in your journey so far.

It's great you've posted and hope to see more!
