Open your eyes....and see


I have been through so much in my life and you wouldn't know it if you looked at me...Sometimes I don't even believe it. But iv got plenty of battle wounds to know its all true :p. What makes me get through it is the love of the people in my life and I am so grateful to them for being there for me through everything in my life. I know I wouldn't be as strong as I am if I didn't have the support...People don't understand how sick I am really am sometimes....I try to keep upbeat and look strong for everyone else...but someday I just am sick as a dog and look like it loll...People who are not really familiar with kidney disease do not understand how critical it really is. ..
I go to dialysis four times a week and I never go alone....but there are 16 other patients getting treatment at the same time and I think only 2 other patients have someone with them....the others are alone, and I could never imagine being alone during that time...or how people could leave a loved one to go through that alone.
No one should ever have to feel alone while going through things like this. 

I have a few messages I want to get out to people:
1) I need a kidney donor
2) Organ donation awareness-and how many others need a kidney
3) if you know someone going through something like this ...don't be a stranger.
4) Life is beautiful, just like you don't forget that, you are worth it!

*And to thank all the people who have imprinted in my life in small and big ways.
