      I'm so happy for you sis in law! That's wonderful news. From what I know about breast cancer, that means that she has excellent chances for a full recovery. And having your sister come for awhile is great news too. That should take some of the burden off your shoulders for a bit. Big hugs!

      I just wanted to give you a hug and find out how you're doing today. I've kept you and your family in my prayers. I just hope all this stress doesn't put you into a flare from hell. Oh....I forgot to send you this one link. It's about breathing exercises that really help our stress levels. As soon as I find it again, I'll send it to you. It's also on Dr. Andrew Weil's website. Here it is, I just found it:

    • Close Dialysis

      My mom has been suffering from kidney disease for the past 6 years...just this week she has now entered stage 5 kidney disease. Her gfr is 14....so we know that she will be starting dialysis sometime within this next year. She is 75 with other health issues...so not much of a transplant candidate. She does not go on the computer...so I figured I can keep myself educated thru this website. She will more than likely do home dialysis. Not sure which type as of today.
