Hi, I've been visiting ihatedialysis.com since my husband's kidneys failed in July 08 due to HUS and TTP. I thought it was a good time to join as I have a question re (adult) HUS and transplant eligibility and will try to find the appropriate location for posting.
Thanks.

Welcome to the family Dizzy. If you make a mistake by posting in the wrong place don't worry too much, we have moderators that can fix that until you familiarize yourself with the site more. It's easy once you figure it out.

Welcome to our community! This is just the place for information. But not only that, there is lots of great support here as well. though I am not familiar with your husband's condition, maybe some others are and can help. There is also a special section here for loved ones and caregivers. Check it out. Remember that this is not just a website - it is a family  Read as much as you can and post as much as you can. Let us know how your husband is doing (and you too!). Bajanne, Moderator |
