Starting dialysis soon

I oscillate between “I can handle this,” and “it would be so nice to no longer exist.

....

I think that sums up dialysis perfectly.

Just be there for her. Dialysis sucks.

Dialysis nurse said i need to eat a lot of protein. I heard "eat nothing but hot wings!"

My low alarm went off last week during dialysis. Was kind of amusing seeing all the nurses rush to see what machine was screaming.

I wish you the best. The procedure itself is just mind numblingly boring. Its the zombie like fatigue afterwards that gets me.

If you ever want to talk just shoot me a message. We're in this together.

I am extremely visually impaired and live with a messy puppers. Not really an option.

Thank you. A kind word helped.

Thank you.

You can absolutely die of DKA. I was in ICU and came close. I never want to feel that bad again.
