Kidney Beans Count

Polycystic Kidney Disease has plagued many families throughout the world, including my own. It often leads to kidney failure and a need for dialysis or transplantation. I was diagnosed with PKD at the age of 21 I never envisioned all that I would experience as life moved forward. This will be a journey of humor, sadness, desperation, love, frustration and all other emotions that come with spending a life bound to a machine you learn to love to hate keeping me alive. Blessings
