Catherine von Ruhland said… - Hi Kathy,
Nice to hear from you, on Christmas Day too!
I was feeling a bit low that day, but it is something I have been giving some thought to, in relation to the relationship question too (I received a card from a Christian couple with a photo on the front of their joyous, loving, fun family of 3 boistrous sons, and it got me wondering how some people get all those blessings and as my therapist commented: 'You get jackshit'...
Ironically, my kidney problems haven't given me such a hard time spiritually or philosophically - but that may be because I haven't let them...
I'll have been on dialysis more or less ten years come April 2010, and not holding my breath for a new kidney though I'm on the Transplant List. If I thought about it too much I'd feel quite irked at how much time is wasted 'out of the loop', especially workwise and all the financial benefits and security that brings.
All the best to you,
Catherinex
