Dailysis patient for since 1999 and still kicking it strong.  I was called for a transplant but could not get it due to damage veins from extremely high blood pressure.  Have it under control now, on NxStage System but will receive dailysis for the rest of my life.  Does life sucks because of this.  ABOLUTELY NOT!  Life is what you make it good, bad, sick, or healthy.  Praise God I'm still functioning as a normal person just have to take extra steps.

Well I guess it's a case that no news is good news. Just maybe our friend here has had his transplant. I like happy endings. I also notice that our friend is from Slovenia, which is a beautiful country I've been lucky enough to visit twice! It's Europe's hidden gem, with some amazing caves and a stunning lakeside town called Bled. I'll go back there one day, when I'm new and improved. I hope we hear back from him soon... with some good news.
