    I have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and kidney failure. Have been on dialysis for 2 months. They wanted me on dialysis 2 years ago. Obviously, I lived 2 years without it. But anyway, I hate dialysis. But I dont want to live the rest of my life with a catheter in my chest. Once I get rid of it and start getting dialysis in my arm, I'll decide when I want to stop. It's just a matter of having the nerve to stop too.

    YOU have a right to your opinion, you cannot prove death is the only option to everyone who makes that decision. You don't know this just like all the people on Dialysis needed to be on it

    Hey, Kj thanks for talking about this, it actually made me think about an option that is there, but I never thought of.
    Of course, I prefer to keep doing dialysis, but I can't talk for everyone and everyone has different situations and a lot of different problems as you well said.
    When I was 17 my doctors decided to try a really strong therapy that was supposed to improve my health and when it instead went the other way I went into depression and started thinking that I didn't want to suffer and I didn't see any good reason to go through all this sh*t… and I contemplated suicide.

    The only reason I didn't act on those thoughts was that I didn't want to hurt my family and especially my mom, who was already suffering almost more than me.
    Then some weeks later I was crying and I realized that soon or later we all die, but not everyone is lucky enough to live or to have a good life and I can't complain about the life I had so far.
    So I decided to just don't give a f*ck what bad things life will throw at me, I will find my happiness, be grateful and always try to improve myself.
    Maybe it's not our fault that we are sick, but is our responsibility to react and make the most out of our lives. 🙂

    So what is your final end result here? Are you deciding to end dialysis? I know you said you've considered it but what have you thought about recently? Are you going to continue because life is too short. You said don't take it for granted so I'm really praying that you will hang in there the best that you can. I know they have told me there's nothing left as far as treatment because my kidneys are not responding so I have to make a conscious decision to avoid as much drama of course LOL but I'm a full-time mom between two households and also helping my disabled ex-husband so I am quite stressed. The more stress, the higher my blood pressure. The higher my blood pressure the more risk of kidney damage or protein elevation. I'm scared to death that's for sure. I'm thinking about you dear

    Laughter is good medicine. I am watching this now for the second time. It is really serious! It sounds like the decision on the part of your acquaintance had a resounding effect on you. I know that it has to get old going three days a week, it is really like a part time job and I am sure all dialysis patients just get fricking tired. There are probably a lot who have had the thought that it would just be easier to quit. Heavy subject sweetie. Thank you for your sincerity. You are so genuine, this is why I love you!

    Hey Baby Brie!! OMG! Your hair looks so beautiful girl.. loving all these styles.. It's just getting overwhelming.. the amount of hairstyles you know how to do!! You are definitely a femme girl.. and we love it! We are sorry to hear that someone at your D-center decided to stop getting dialysis recently. Hopefully they can be convinced to come back. We are sorry to hear that you have experienced in the past feelings of wanting to stop as well.. when you're not feeling well, and feeling weak. But totally understand you feeling that way and we think anyone that goes through what you go through every week, would feel the same way at somepoint throughout their treatment. We know you are so strong as a woman and a kidney disease survivor!! You are a tiny woman but your strenght to us is so massive.. it's crazy!! We totally agree… to never take your health for granted and you can't buy your health.. That's for sure.. except in the healthy choices you make (or don't make) with food every day. That's the only way to buy your health in some sort of way. It was great hanging out with you on our live tonight as we always love when you're there and sorry we kept you up so late!! We hope you have a good session tomorrow, and know that we love you to the mother effin' moon!! <3 <3

I definitely do not ever take my health for granted and do not abuse my body with junk food, alcohol or drugs. I hope you are doing okay, my sweet friend!! ❤️❤️❤️

    My Mom has had moments of not wanting to be on dialysis.
    To be honest we've argued, yelled, this last time I cried uncontrollably all day.
    Brings me to tears now remembering it.
    BUT, this is life, this is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
    It is my joy to have her around, and it is a joy to have you around, Elizabeth.
    Thanks for sharing 💗💗

    Hey Liz!!! I just wanna say how amazing of a person i think you are. I cant even imagine how tough it can be for you at times, but just like the rest of the world, we gotta keep going. You will get through the touch times and although it can be tough, it will happen. There are always going to be other days. What you have talked about is very serious and very true. Keep it up!

    My sister was on dialysis for over 17 years, I never asked her if she wanted to stop. It was never a subject I thought to talk with her about. I’m going on 6 years now. And same as you, I think people do take their health for granted. I have two of the best reasons to keep on keeping on, my two daughters. Thank you for sharing this. God bless you always and may He keep giving you light, strength and love. ❤️

    A while back there was a patient that decided to stop dialysis and he didn't want to live anymore and all I could do was pray for him. I have to much to live for and it's hard some times but I feel so much better. You are correct never take your health for granted.
