<DIV>Thanks Mike, I was really scared at first and had decided not to do it. But
my family talked me into it. They couldn't stand the thought of letting me
go quite yet. I am doing better than I thought I would. I will be on the
machine for 4 to 6 hrs, 3 times a week. I also chose the
dialysis center at Sacred Heart Medical center in Miramar Beach, Fl, I have
been in the hospital there 3 times since Feb, 9, 2008 and everyone has been
great. </DIV>

<DIV>I didn't even know you could donate platelets. I think that is a
thoughtful thing for someone to do. I am continually amazed at the things
you can do to help others. </DIV>

about your dialysis. I donate platelets every couple of weeks and am on the

but not as intense. I'll think of you next time -
