Hey man, I know this is tough news to hear…I am 21, and my Mom is 42. She started having Kidney failure when I was about a year old, and she was diagnosed with Lupus. She has been through 4 kidney transplants(her most recent was Christmas Eve of 22). She has also been on Dialysis all but 6 of those years in my lifetime. She is fortunate enough to have a machine at home, and she can make her own dialysis schedule. I tell you all of this because this might help you in your struggles. My mom has always felt bad we might not have been able to do anything because she thinks her doing dialysis might hinder trips or stuff like that. It has never hindered a single thing in my life, we have both quite literally traveled the world while she has done dialysis. We recently were fortunate enough to go to Europe and we went on a 12 night cruise in the Med. Greek Isles, she was able to travel with her machine and we did dialysis on the cruise ship.

If you are able to get a dialysis machine, your everyday life will be the exact same pretty much, besides the time you are doing dialysis. My mom found it best for her to do it most days a week for 3-3 1/2 hours a day. She would just read or watch a Tv show during this time.

Ik you can also do a method of Dialysis where you are on the machine while you are sleeping through the night. Just depends on what you prefer. If you have to go to a clinic to do Dialysis you will probably have to slightly change your schedule to be able to go to the clinic a few times a week(but this means it will be longer on the machine because it is less times a week).

Long story short, you will pretty much be able to do everything you are already doing, you just have to put a few hours X amount of days aside to be on a machine to filter your blood. You might feel weak or bad every now and then if something comes up and you can’t do dialysis one day, but most of the time(as my Mom explains to people) “I live a perfectly normal life, its just a matter of scheduling that is different)

I understand its awful news you didn’t want to hear, and it will be a life-adjustment. However, try your best to remain positive and lean on God if you are struggling with anything…he is always there for you even if you don’t see it. Praying for you!

I don't know what your goals for the gym are, but regardless, Yes, its actually good every once in a while to "De-load". Sometimes if you are working out 5-6 times a week, eating proper intake meals, and getting plenty of rest in between, its ok to take a De-load week every once in a while. Even if you only work out a few days a week, its still good to De-load. You are bedridden, so you can't control that, just rest up try to get as much protein in as you can and stay safe man. You'll be back in no time :nana:

I think he was also great, but he was slow at some points with his instincts. Should get better with more playing time

I just hope to the Good Lord Sanders misses another week, and our safeties don't get into one on one tackling scenarios with Jefferson...or it will be an interesting game for sure

I'm young and dumb...but why don't we use cowbells at Tiger Stadium...I am fully aware that we have no ties to a cowbell, but I could only imagine how loud Deaf Valley would get with 102,321 fans using cowbells :geauxtigers: :geauxtigers: :geauxtigers:

"was he a 5-star" Yeah, he was the number 1 or 2 running back in the nation Lol

Texans. They interviewed him a few days ago, and according to insiders and analysts, it went “extremely well for both sides” Ryans was supposed to interview with the Colts and another team this week, but after the Texans interview he canceled those other interviews.

That 48 fg BARELY went in…literally almost skipped off the cross bar, I knew before he even attempted the kick he would shank it because he was gonna try to boot the life out of it.

I could be as effective as Haynes King at QB, and Im 5'9 150 with zero QB experience

He was FEASTING in the spring game, but…yes I know, it was against our own team. He should get some time in the rotation next year for sure

Honestly, the unity of the defense. Over the past few years we have had so much pettiness and drama on the defensive side of the ball, and its felt like they were playing for themselves and not each other. We have a group of guys that are all close friends, truly care about the program and one another that they are willing to go out and do whatever it takes. It’s like we are actually playing as a team.
