Thank heavens you can still ride, that has to help keep the sanity level closer to normal. Nothing better than a ride to clear the brain and calm the nerves.

Hang in there Rax! Hopefully you'll be able to have the transplant done soon so you won't have to worry about dialysis anymore! Prayers are with you and your family! Keep fighting and when things look down, come here and we'll cheer ya up!

HAHA..I love my avatar..fits me. Especially afterwards when I feel I wanna bite the head off the next person I meet. I get a tad [:-]grumpy after having my blood pumped thru a machine for a few hours [sm=badbadbad.gif]



Rax
I hear ya' on that one. Know the drill all too well. My wife's father undergoes dialysis treatments on that same frequency. He's not a candidate for a transplant such as yourself so his treatments are indefinite. It's tough, no doubt. And although I haven't been through it first-hand, I can easily understand (in bearing witness to my father in law) how one could get a little bit 'testy' both before, during, and after treatments. It can be a grind day in and day out. You just kind of start to'recover' from the last treatment and off you go again for the next one. Good luck to you, man. Seriously, good luck.
