You don't understand how much of an intrusion disease is. You're fucking programed and ready to go for routine daily activities by 21 so when a doctor says "change it up" it's not as cut and dry as doing exactly what the doctor says. it takes some time to adjust.

What's Hemodialysis like? I'm 23 years old, about 6-7 years post transplanted and was on peritoneal dialysis but I understand that the two treatments are very different.

Mine was nightly an the catheter was insterted directing into my abdomen right into the peritoneal cavity as to flush the toxins in my body. At night I would 'load up' a bag of saline liquid onto 'the machine' (it's what we called it back then, I'm not sure of it's actual name' and connect myself to it. While is slept, I filled up, then drained of the solution, and every morning before school I'd cut open the dispose of the bag by cutting it open, then dumping it into the toilet. I only had it for a year and a half but it really did a doozy on me developmentally. As a kid I had no access to kids my age outside of school so I was a little bit behind socially (I just figured out how to read a room like...1 year ago lol) but it wasn't cancer and it wasn't terminal so I'm grateful for that, but I can't deny the negative effects of having such an adult disease as a kid.

TL;DR Filled up with fluids via saline bag+catheter, was an awkward little disaster child.

Icky Vicky, you're so cruel.

Does anyone ever recognize your voice and realize it's vicky?

Subquestion: were you a terrible babysitter as a teenager?

Hey man, never have heard of you, but I like the single so I'm gonna go listen to more. I'm from America, so there is probably a different path when it comes to the music industry, but what's your best advice to wanna be artists? Not just 'do what you believe' but what was the thing that kept you going at the worst times when (or if) you felt like a failure or giving up? What drives you?
