I also posted this article about myself and my family in the "Dialysis" Section and here also.......I hope you all enjoy it!     :clap;     My husband wrote a little article about us in his work magazine about our journey so far with dialysis, kidney disease and also transplant work up testing.......there's an add from the Trillium Gift Of Life  also that could create some awareness about organ donation        :thumbup;        :flower;
