A Kidney Community in Canada

I was sick since I was born but not diagnosed until I was 9 years old. I was diagnosed with Kidney Disease. When I was 16 a Nephrologist told my mom that my original kidneys could have been saved if the doctor she was trying to get to believe her would have ran 3 simple tests. Instead by the age of 16 I was on a dialysis machine.

Because of my experiences (I am now 35 and just got my 2nd kidney transplant Sept 30th 2007) I wanted to start a site for kidney patients to go to to chat with others with kidney disease as well. We might not all agree but at least it gives somewhere to talk and vent and get advice (does not replace doctor advice).

This site is at kidneykorner.com and there is a forum as well there that has a chatroom in it and a shout box and arcade.

So this is my first blog here. Don't know what else to say for now.
