I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.

My father also had CKD and was ultimately placed on home hemodialysis. That was 38 years ago. My mother and I were his dialysis care partners. He lived close to three years on home hemodialysis before he passed.

It was certainly hard at first; I missed him a lot. He was such a great example of how to live well with a serious chronic condition. With time my grief was replaced with good memories.

I've felt his presence over these past 8 years following the diagnosis of my CKD. Hopefully you will feel your mother's spirit routing you on as you navigate your own journey with CKD.

I’m so sorry to hear about your mother. It’s easy to sink into depression, it’s a constant struggle. But on the bright side, she did very well on dialysis and sounds like you are too! You’re in my thoughts and prayers 😀😀
