Hang in there--with me--

I have a feeling I should try to provide a little inspiration, if I can.
And besides, let me prove that there's more to my life than dialysis & waiting for a transplant.
First of all, I know it's rough sometimes. Believe me, I've gone through times where I wanted to just quit dialysis and let myself die peacefully. I'm not considering it now, but that could change. In general, though, something must be keeping me going. Maybe it's the idea that tomorrow might possibly be better than today was (??). Actually, my weekend has been halfway decent. I had another dialysis treatment yesterday with no headache following. And I'm even feeling a little bit frisky still. But, I'm 38 years old and living with my parents (after 16 years on my own). And believe me, we're cramped. Thank goodness my room has a door; know what I mean? I'm getting fussy, though. I want very much to have more time alone than I have since I came back here from San Diego last year. Know something else?? I haven't been able to eat much in about 3 or 4 days. I wanted to lose a little weight, but I hadn't planned for my appetite to take a vacation without me. Still, I guess this is one way of losing a little weight...as long as I can get my appetite back before it's too late.
Let me give you one idea: if I can hang in there and not quit, so can you. Know how long it's been since I got any kind of a compliment for anything??? I think it was on my birthday; almost 7 months ago. Yes. It was.
Anyways, I'm right here if you need anything. Keep in touch.
I have to make this one a short one. I'm getting another slight headache; possibly from not eating in three days.
Love ya!
