Looking to learn

I'm so happy this group exists. My son is 15 and has kidney disease in his only kidney. He lost his right kidney to MCDK. He was just diagnosed in April as stage 2 and we've been on a mission ever since to keep it that way. Adjusting diet, hydration and taking BP meds. While he is still early I know, i am looking to really learn all I can from other members here.
