One Day at a time here

hello everyone 😎

Was not sure where to write this

so, I have started a new thread

thank you @Oaktree , @Ru-bee for thinking of me today 😍

my results from the doctor was not really good

  • my Kidney function have decreased to 17%
  • my Liver and diabetes levels are up
  • I have Osteoporosis which i will need medication as my bone density has decreased because of the kidney disease
  • they believe that the Liver function is up because of the kidney disease
  • Kidney disease affects every part of your body
  • scan also shows the tinny of my kidney

Well you certainly can get anything at Bunnings @Shaz51 🤣

You seem to have had a big day including some incidental exercise.

I hope the tests are too onerous and that you get something out of them that is helpful for you.

All the best

Hello @Shaz51!

That's okay, you're allowed to ask for communication that feels right for you.

How has the conversation been going so far? 💛

Re: One Day at a time here

@Shaz51 I'm wondering if it is feeling encouraging to hear the path she has been walking and how she has found strength to keep going each step?

I hope she feels warm and authentic and caring to you, and developing good connection/rapport between you 🥰. You deserve authentic peer connection on your kidney disease journey too (as well as MH).

It sounds like you have gotten a lot from connecting with her already! @Shaz51

We all go through different experiences, and yours are still absolutely valid. 🫶

Have you seen her in person? I am not sure of your relationship history, but I am all ears if you would like to share more!
