A for Attitude!

We went away for the mid term break to Midmar Dam. What a wonderful place to relax and enjoy some water sports. On the Saturday MrGee had to book into hospital for a dialysis session. He woke up at 4:30 in the morning travelled an hour by car to Pinetown .... dialysised for 4 hours and travelled back to our resort chalet. He continues to keep positive and up beat about the whole issue. We could all take a lesson or two from this guy.

After arriving back at Midmar Dam he took us all out for a jaunt on the water. He couldn't enjoy the water and the tubing as he still has the dialysis tube in his neck. After an hour or two on the water we moored the speed boat and returned to the chalet. MrGee had to lie down as he had a headache and felt nauseous due to dehydration.

In a week the dialysis tube in his neck will be removed, and I know he will be alot happier!

Fistula is looking good!

It's been nine weeks since MrGee had his fistula procedure and today is the first time they are going to dialysise through the fistula.He is so looking forward to the removal of the dialysis pipes in his neck. He desperately wants to get back to gym!
