    About Me

    I am a 43 year old husband and father of a 14 year old son and his 10 year old twin brothers. I am currently a fifth grade teacher . I love sports and music . I was very bad in controling my high blood pressure and ended up with kidney failure.

    Interests

    I love sports ( mainly football) but I can watch anything .. I have actually watched curling. I am an avid music fan, jazz is my first love but I love music.I am a musician, drummer pianist, horns, and guitar. I enjoy doing things that involve kids, I coach, mentor and teach. I like moviegoing comedy or action I am not a big fan of message movies I just want to be entertained without thinking about it.

    • Close Dialysis

      I let my blood pressure get out of control and that led to kidney failure. I am a 43 year old husband and father of 3 wonderful sons.. I am currently a 5th grade teacher. I am an avid sports fan , a football coach and a music lover.

      Treatments

      Dialysis Somewhat Helpful
      I have not had any major problems with dialysis besides severe cramping with every treatment. I am feeling better PHYSICALLY since it started.
