okarol,
Thanks for all of the articles and news relating to ESRD, dialysis, and organ donation.  I read them all and have found some informative and interesting stuff in the articles you post.  You would be a perfect teacher -- you throw out information for us to read, ponder, and digest.  I'm so glad I'm in your "class."  Keep them coming!   :thumbup; :thumbup; :thumbup;

 :thumbup; I totally agree with Petey - I always check for Karol's news posts.  Anything I can show my Dad to let him know that things are moving forward - wearable kidneys etc - gives him hope.  I know it will probably never come in his lifetime but heck if he has hope then that means a lot.  So a heartfelt thanks from me too. :cuddle;

For the "younger" ones of us with this disease, these articles offer so much hope. Thank you!

Same here, Rose1999.  I do the same thing.  I check here every day to see if Okarol has pulled up more info!  And she always does.   :thx;
