Just a quick line to say, Hello I'm Back, been offline for so long now. Just gone on-line today. Not many members will know me. KEVNO (UK)
Sunny Manchester. As if! May 26th This month been back on dialysis for 20years. Started dialysis 1977. At the age of ten. Found out to late I had Reflux. I was six years old. Four years spent trying to save the One kidney I was Born with.1981 had transplant lasted till 1988. Thats all for now. hope to get  back into the swing of posting on the site. Will change my E-mail address on my profile. Have been on the site a few times using my mobile phone. but not the same as 8MB broadband. Boy its fast! last broadband i was on was with AOL at 2MB. What a change.



Hope everything is well with you all.

Yes, there's lots of reading to catch up on - maybe start with clicking on "new replies to your posts" to see the older stuff first?

Welcome back, kevno!  Hey, did they have this  :bunny: or this  :sir ken; when you were active on IHD before?  Aren't you impressed with these added icons? (if you like them, okarol is responsible -- but if you think they're silly or disgusting, it was all Sluff's idea).  Post some more!

Howdy Kevno, it's been awhile I hope you are doing well. I remember back when you had the surgery on your toes or something.
Great to see you back.

I so glad I was able to make you guys :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;. I fixed my mistake, ok, maybe it wasn't a mistake. I even used spell check but since suck is a word it had no problem with it. Hey kevno, post a picture of yourself or have you already?

You don't know how good it feels to have you back on the site!!!  :yahoo;  :yahoo;  :yahoo; :yahoo;  I really missed you and your input.  I don't envy you the catching-up you have to do!  This site is so active, that when I miss a day or two it gives me the dickens.
So tell us about your health situation.

Welcome back Kevino!  I'm gald you are still alive!  How are you doing these days?  I'm using needles now, but I still use EMLA cream and lidocane and bite my finger real hard when they go in.  How about you?  Still have the catheter??
