Hi Gang,
I thought I'd kick this party up a notch and hopefully get some new
talk'n going on! PS - You will see this similar post on a few other
sites I'm sure, so let me say I'm sorry upfront, but I'm on a new
mission!
I have a new story to tell and trust me, I've thought long and hard
about this story, because I don't really like throwing my medical
private life out for the world, but I am going to do whatever it
takes to be healthy, happy and informed!!! Plus I'm not looking for
pity, I am leading a normal and full life, just need to make some
changes. I have been blessed to be surrounded by a truly positive
network of family, friends, prayer lists, etc. This email is just to
share and hopefully learn more from someone.
I was just diagnosed with a disease called Good Pastures Syndrome and
I've lost 100% of both my kidneys right now. I'm alive, I'm healthy,
I can drive, etc, so that part is fine, I'm just saving on toilet
paper, LOL. Plus now I don't have to wait in line at the bars to
pee, go me!!!!
OK the point of the story, is I'm just looking to network with people
here in Jacksonville / Orlando / Daytona who might have some "sodium"
eating issues, or someone who might have a family member or friend
that I might be able to talk with. I'm not looking to hear horror
stories or poor me stories, I want to be around positive uplifting
people who see the light at the end of the tunnel kind of thing.
Thanks for letting me tell my story!
Christina
