Hi!  :waving;  Go to the "Introduction" thread and have at it!  I think you'll find it on the Message Boards main page.  Can't wait to read all about you!   ;)

Actually, it's called "Forum". 


oops!  Sorry, I didn't realize you were already in the Introduction section!   ::)    ;D

Your in the right place. Welcome to IHD Twirl,

You will learn a lot and hopefully become an active poster here. It won't take long and you will figure the forum out in no time. If you need help just ask,  :urcrazy; then we can be lost together.  ;)

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.

Speaking of vampires ... there's a new show on HBO called "True Blood." The website says "Thou shall not crave thy neighbor." Will you watch?
