LIVE LIFE BIG

WWW
« on: February 10, 2008, 07:08:25 AM »

Hi, everyone I missed this site. Was riding my mountain bike and got hit by a car. Ruptured my spleen. Back on my feet, my dialysis is going good. Back riding my bike full time and exercising. I think what ever exercise you can do while on dialysis can only help your over all well being.W ould like to ask everyone to go to www.poetry.com and rate my poetry. I could when a contest When you go to the site put Derrick kess when they ask for the poets name. Write me and tell me what you think, regards Derrick Kess

Hi, my name is Derrick Kess I am 44 years old, have been on dialysis for twelve years. Live everyday to the fulliest. I am a published poet. Go to poetry.com and where it say's to enter poet's name enter Derrick Kess. I won a award for my poem LIVE LIFE BIG and I hope it can put a smile on your face or make you feel better. I ride my mountain bike everyday, I ride around twenty miles a day. I believe exercise is big part of living with dialysis. And it doesn,t mean riding a bike, but taking a walk or visiting a neighbor. I am designing a t-shirt with the  LIVE LIFE BIG logo. HAVE A GREAT DAY
