Experiment

So, between an auto accident in October 2017 and using Metaformin for being diabetic, I lost my kidneys.
And if that was not bad enough, I was literally brought to the point of death.
Death by suffocation is not pleasant.
Your lung fill with fluid, gurgle-gurgle!
With no love of this life, I finally had my pass out of this existence!

But God impressed upon me the importance of recognizing that He alone chooses when and why I am to die.
And, unfortunately, this was not my time.
Sigh .....

So, I have submitted to the needles, three times a week, to save what exists of my life.

But, it is sort of a wasted existence.
Can't actually work any longer.
I have NO memories, just fragmentary snapshots.
And some no so flattering!
Can't really drive anywhere or very far by myself.
What's a bear to do?!?!?!?

Then I had a chance to participate in a drug study about kidney disease.
The drug is Anakindra.
It certainly seems to be doing something about my kidneys.
But oh-my-God!, the side-effects!

Every time I get a shot of this stuff -
Everything inside of me comes roaring out!
Currently at 72 straight hours of toilet time.
Face in or the reverse!

One would be tempted to quit.
But, I do have a positive side.
Like weight loss!

Drop twenty pounds and pants fit better.
Maybe i will think about stopping
If I can reach my pre accident weight!
That would be so nice ......
