Its been a hot minute since I've posted, so figured I'd check in real quick. Im doing well. Unfortunately my kidneys have failed me, so im now doing dialysis. I am working towards getting a transplant as well, but since I am doing well and still working full-time, in have that on hold until I retire in about 19 months.

Hope everyone is doing well. I'll try to check in more frequently!

I feel for you. My stepsister was in the same condition as you but didn’t take care of herself and had to go into the forever box because of her poor decisions. Keep up with the medical care and try to follow the careful path before you.

Isn't getting old a pain? And don't I know it.

Take care.

Yeah, I got diagnosed in 2017 with high blood pressure, and that's when I found out about my kidneys starting to fail. I tried everything i could to keep it from progressing, but unfortunately nothing helped. So here I am.

Hi Mike!! Hope you are well my friend! Im still chugging along! Once I retire in about 18 months, I'll be focusing on getting a kidney transplant. Dialysis is keeping me going. I feel good, better than i have been.
