Losing Weight But Not Heart

Good Evening Folks,

So I haven't updated in a while. What have I been up too? In short; hospital visit because my body had become toxic (doctor's are still trying to figure out whether it was from my kidneys not filtering enough or a type to med called Prograf becoming a toxic bomb within my body) and had started causing my seizures. As you can imagined, that really sucked. I'm doing a lot better as you can imagined (hell I'm updating right now from the comfort of my own home,) but I'm on dialysis. Dialysis is of course, a treatment that is almost like an artificial kidney, which you get hooked up too three times a week for (in my case) four hours a week, at a DCI place in North Brunswick, NJ. A DCI (or dialysis center) is just what it is, a dialysis center where people go for treatment.

Does it suck? Yes it does I won't lie about it. Though it does make me feel better/normal, and I don't develop seizures, so that is a great plus. I do lose weight (or water weight/liquid weight) so my clothes fit better /joke. I really can't complain because let's face it ladies and gents, I don't have a choice. I need it to get better (til a transplant comes around,) and of course, I am going to look better. And I will get to the shallow part of this because I know it sounds "dickish," but it's the truth.

I keep saying that because of this treatment I will look better. I will post pictures of before dialysis and while on dialysis. You'll see a world difference within a couple treatments and of course, you'll see me looking better "literally and figuratively." I actually can't wait til I start putting pictures up. It'll be nice to show people my progression of the year and they can see how I'm changing (and whether or not I'll shave within a time frame. Yes that does include my hair because it's a little unruly right now.)

So with that ladies and gents, I am off to listen to music and talk to my wonderful girlfriend Jessie. I might get a little more personal tomorrow pending how treatment goes. For now though: I leave you with another wonderful youtube clip of a song that I love:
