2nd kidney

Hello all, I'm new to this app and wanted to see what it's all about.. I'm about to receive my second kidney transplant, in which the first one lasted me 15 years. Don't really have a lot of energy but trying to think of things I could do while at home since I'm not working and on disability. Any ideas?

PS I used to work in a hospital as a paramedic, so I'm bored! Haha

First of all I would love to see you write "your story". There are lots of folks out there that are fairly new to this kidney disease/transplant journey that might benefit from your experience. I also think it would benefit you and any family you have. I know I would love to read about your life.

Wow the stories you could tell. The support you could offer. How blessed you are to receive a 2nd kidney. Maybe you could mentor those at a center?

I've looked around in my area... I would love to do that. Since I did some of that for a while when I was a little younger. Can't find anything though
