Got it from my dialysis team as it’s patient appreciation month.

Im exhausted. I want to scream and cry sometimes simultaneously.

I had what they call in the kidney community as “crashing into dialysis” in March. This is where I collapsed at work and was finally admitted to the hospital 2 days later for completed renal failure.

Im turning 42 at the end of year. I have an almost 6 year old next week. Im exhausted and can’t keep up with anything. My husband learned how to do dialysis at home so he comes home and puts me on treatment for 4 hours 4 days a week. Our little family is exhausted.

My team thought that I was ready to return to work, but Im not. 3 surgeries within 2 months has exhausted my body.

Costco today was brutal today, but I love their cheese pizza. So that is my food for the day with my coke.

I could use a hug.

Got the first 3 on one target run. Got the last 2 today at target. Didnt realize the two today were the different set. So stoked!
