Kathleen,
It's a lesson for all of us "caregivers",,,shoot "care seekers". Take care of yourself.

i am a 51 year old male on dialysis for 3 years now. This is my second time. My brother donated a kidney to me about 13 years ago. I found this site on another site. I had to laugh when i saw what it was called. I hope to meet people from all over to talk about dialysis.
