Since I haven't been around in awhile, I will reintroduce myself.  I'm a 50 year old male on hemo in North Central Iowa.  I've been at it since the fall of '01.  I'm grateful to be having a reasonably easy experience at what I think is a great center.  If I had to go through this, I'm glad I'm going through it here with the people who care for me.  I appreciate how blessed I am and wish it could be the same for all of you.

I'm proud to meet you, NKV. You are in a great center so obviously it isn't Davita or Frensenius. It's good to see someone else who is having a decent time on dialysis. When I was younger one of my ambitions was to stick a good looking nurse. Now the roles are somewhat reversed. Just thought I would share that with you all.

Re-welcome to our community!  Glad you made it back!  Please don't do this again!  We need all the members of our family.  I am glad that you continue to have a reasonably good experience at your center, as I am presently doing.  Looking forward to hearing lots more from you.  And you have so much to catch up on here at this site!  Get to it!!
