We lost another one of the gang on Tuesday. Kylie was in her car when she had a 'medical event'. The car was moving very slowly, and rolled into a parked car. She was dead at the wheel. It'll be a coroner's job, but it looks very much like a heart attack or stroke. 38 years old and leaves 2 kids. I am getting tired of posting these stories!

Galvo, I am sorry for the loss of one of your gang. I feel like I dont want to come here much lately. Two the nicest people on here Brenda Seal and Boswife have lost their partners in the last month.My heart goes out to them. I get so tired of all this.

If she was being given enough dialysis, that probably would not have happened.  Oh well, Millions Thiry had a banner year, money-wise.  I guess that is what is important.

Dailysis patient for since 1999 and still kicking it strong.  I was called for a transplant but could not get it due to damage veins from extremely high blood pressure.  Have it under control now, on NxStage System but will receive dailysis for the rest of my life.  Does life sucks because of this.  ABOLUTELY NOT!  Life is what you make it good, bad, sick, or healthy.  Praise God I'm still functioning as a normal person just have to take extra steps.

1) You have WRONGLY assumed that Galvo and Kylie dialyzed in the U.S. from your Thiry remark.
2) You have no knowledge, zippo about Kylie or what other health problems she was facing.
3) What value does your response have?

One of our members just lost another firiend.  Please, either show a bit of compassion or don't post.  Leave your anger to appropriate threads.  Thanks.
