Posting here for funding and money is like preaching to the choir.  We are all in the same place you are or have bills from dealing with kidney disease, too. 
I will leave this post on the board, however please only respond on this thread and do not post it again please.

These links are worth a read - especially the one about an assistance program shifting from funding hemo to funding EPO since the Phillippine govt generously increased dialysis funding from 45 to 90 treatments per year.

It is a reminder that despite the extra expense Dialysis patients face in the US, we are no where near the practice of "cash or coffin" that is prevalent in many areas of the world.

gellybean - I'm guessing you are posting this on several boards. If so a couple of words of advice:

(1) You are better off posting on non-dialysis related boards because those of us on dialysis have similar, although not as serious, funds problems as you, so even if we want to send you money, most of us can't.

(2) Before you post this, become a valid member of the board, post and chat on the board. When I saw your post it showed your post count as 7. In other words it looked as though you had just joined to try to get money and added a few posts to try and disguise this. Not even a board full of rich philanthropists are going to be interested in sending you money after that. You really need to have been on the board for several months before posting this, and also make well over one hundred SENSIBLE posts in that time.

(3) Do not be too optimistic of success. Posts like this always come over as "Spanish prisoner" type posts. On most boards 99% of people are simply going to assume it is a con.

I’m sorry I didn’t mean to offend anybody. It was out of frustration and desperation. I’ve been a member for awhile but wasn’t active. I just thought that being in the same situation, some who are doing well can help. That’s it really.
