    Default Need To Vent

    I have been in kidney failure all my life. I got a transplant when I was 16. I am now 33 and am on dialysis and in need a another transplant. My husband was a perfect match last year but they did not do the transplant because they kept putting it off. Well now they retested him and he no longer matches because I was in the hospital in March and they had to give me blood transfusions. I was on life support and almost did not make it.Now I am scared to death because I have a 8 year old son I have to raise and have no idea where I am going to be able to get a donor now. I also have a disease called Cystinosis and have to take medicine for it so that my other organs wont fail. since I am on dialysis I can no longer take this medication until I get a transplant. Could every one keep me in thier prayers and pray that I will find a kidney donor soon.

    thank you and god bless

    thank you for the prayers. I have been in and out of the hospital ever since I was 18 months old and am scared that something is going to happen to me and I am going to leave my son.

    Hi, and welcome. My DH is on dialysis and is waiting for a transplant, although because he's diabetic he's on the list for kidney/pancreas. I am PM'ing you the website to the best dialysis support group around. I hope you check it out. While you're there, search for some posts on IVIG, it can help you get a transplant from your husband even though you have antibodies. A member named Jill D. had it done. ((HUG))

    Sending prayers for you.
    “When you get to the end of all the light you know
    and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
    faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
    you will be given something solid to stand on,
    or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller


    “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
    there are signs that the world is speedily
    coming to an end;
    bribery and corruption are common; children no
    longer obey their parents;
    every man wants to write a book and the
    end of the world is evidently approaching.”
    — From a translation of an inscription on
    an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.


    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference
    .
