Hi there,

I am a medical newspaper reporter in Pittsburgh PA working on a story about kidney disease and dialysis. I read your post and thought perhaps you could help me out. I am trying to talk to people about their experiences on dialysis and how familiar they are with treatment options. I would love to speak with you about your case, so I would appreciate if you can e-mail or call me. I can then tell you more about my story.

Thanks,

I noticed it in my inbox this morning

Hi Mark,

I have not received such an email, but I do remember this person posting in the intro section about a month ago. Perhaps you could look for his post if you want more information. Let us know how it goes if you contact him!

I got one and e-mailed him back, but haven't gotten a response since.  The e-mail he lists is the same one that shows up on the newspapers website, and he's got a bio on there as well, so I'm pretty sure it's legit.

You do not have to participate or respond if you don't want to.

I spoke with him on the phone sometime in June. I read a few of his stories on liver transplants.

I responded, but like the others, never received anything back.
