  • She? That's me and I'm a guy! I'm not talking like a little kid I was trying to use "very basic" terms rather than calling the lines venus or arterial, etc. For some reason people seem to think I have a "girls voice" even though I'm a 21 year old dude... Oh well...

  • ... and now a 22 year old dude...

  • I have the same problem, people always think I'm a girl on the phone!

  • great video. Thanks :)

  • @Naterkix

    how many times you have to go thru on dialysis in a week? i know that you spend about 4 hours in the process but is this like everyday thing or once a month thing?

    I'm thinking of becoming a dialysis tech. no experience on this and there's a school in my area. what could possibly the worst thing can happen in this process?

  • I'm a student trying to see how they do the hemodialysis treatment.....I think who ever the person is did a good job explaining the procedure while doing the hemodialysis treatment.......cause i needed that.

  • LoL....She's funny.

    talking like a little kid.

  • Happy Birthday .. one month late oops! Today is my dad's b-day exactly one month after yours ;)

    I am doing well :) The kidney is hanging in there :)

    I also learned that even though I have a kidney now to still not let blood work be done on my fistula because I don't want to risk Thrombosis and Stenosis (I have problems with my veins being too small as it is). I have learned soooo much! But am glad the kidney works! :) It is amazing how I was on dialysis for 6 1/2 years! I am greatful!

  • congrats! How's your new kidney doing? I am turning 26 this sunday and tomorrow the 14th of aug, i am getting my fistula catheter at 10:00am. i am pretty scared and all. my Nephrologist told me that i am pretty much ready to start dialysis. Once the surgery is done.

  • That looks like the Fresenius 2008K. I was on that one in my dialysis unit til I got my kidney Sept 2007
