Hello all you folks that know what it means to be going through dialysis and kidney failure.

Today i got the news that I've been working toward for eight months, including many medical tests during which I was very nervous.

Florida Hospital in Orlando informed me today that I'm on the list for a kidney transplant.

That, coupled with the news that a colleague reporter friend of mine has started the process to give me one of her kidneys, and she's the right blood type, has me hopefull that there's an end to my troubles.

This web site has been good for me in that you folks truly know what I'm going through. I just wanted to let you in on the good news. George White
