i am a 51 year old male on dialysis for 3 years now. This is my second time. My brother donated a kidney to me about 13 years ago. I found this site on another site. I had to laugh when i saw what it was called. I hope to meet people from all over to talk about dialysis.

This is a real encouragement to me. Epoman was the first person who even introduced this idea to me that someone could do their own needles. I have always found it difficult even to contemplate. There is a young lady in my unit who does her own needles. I would love to, but.............. Anyway, thanks for sharing. This is just another little push for me (but I am pushing back as hard as I can  ). |
