Hi,

I'm not a kidney patient, but my wife is. She was diagnosed with kidney disease about 20 years ago and her kidneys had been failing slowly over that time.
After the birth of our son, they failed totally and she went on CAPD.

Just over a year ago she got a new kidney and is doing great!

Gerard.

Welcome Gerald and I'm glad your wife is doing well.  You are a wonderful spouse for joining and learning more about her disease.
