Of Being A Dialysis Patient

I cannot sleep in this hour so to make myself sleepy. I need to fill this portion of my Blog.

Today I will tell you what..

As I always says, being a dialysis patient is never easy because you need to deal with different kinds of preventative measures. From your water intake, food input and of course your health condition.

I never like the idea of this treatment maybe because no one educate me on how this treatment will work and of what I heard about it, and when the Doctor told me that this is the last resort I have. I have no choice but to take it and envelope my life to this threatening ordeal.

Anyway, let me take you back.



This is me when I was still enjoying life and what it could offer. So I say, when I was still healthy.

And this is me in my first month of taking the treatment. The one that you see in my neck is my AVF where tubes are inserted for my blood to clean.


And this is my Fistula in my right arm. They need to transfer the outgoing and incoming of the blood for me to prevent infections. It hurts pretty bad, I know. :)

See that? That is how it needs to be done. That's the tube and my blood. 

This is what I get if one of the nurse didn't do their job well. I will get a swolen arm and I need to wait for another week to use it again. 

This is me during my treatment, as you can see in my right side is the machine that helps me clean my blood from toxic and it helps to take away my excess water in my blood. 

The place where I need to be treated. (Mindanao Dialysis Center) They are equipped with the latest machine. 

The lobby where we have to wait for our turn for our treatment, bloody cold in here. 

The inside of the Center.

The center is my second home. I have my session every Monday and Thursday from 6 Pm to 10 Pm. A four hours treatment that sometimes will bore me to death. Thanks for the Tv and for the pocket wifi, it helps me a lot not to think about the long process. 

To end this post, here's my selfie. 

Taken last night with my new eye glass. :) 

To God be the glory.

Celebrating Good Life at 30..

It was my 30th Birthday yesterday. I am so thankful I got this far and I know I will 30 years from now. I have that faith in me.  So I celebrated my Birthday at home with my family of course. We shared good food,good drinks and good conversation as always. My father empress me by cooking my fave dishes. I was surprised by how they prepared me my birthday dinner. I am overwhelmed. I know that I am still their one and only PRINCESS. My brothers was there and some relatives as well. For me that was one of the special event in my life and I know more to come.  After dinner my mother and I bought some ice cream and jelly roll for dessert and for the nephews and nieces. They like ice cream so much. When I was a kid I am a slacker for ice cream and now that I'm adult I don't like eating too much ice cream anymore. You know the thought that ice cream are for kids not for adults anymore. Do you agree with that? I agree lol.  This time no cards and no flowers. I just remembe...

Its been awhile since I haven't written anything here.  After taking time to open this blog, it reminds me that I need to fill up the space.  To start with. Actually I don't know where I should start.  Anyway, I didn't know how it happened. It just happened so fast like a lightning bolt.  There was me and there was him.  Do I need to say more? Such a wonderful year to start with my new life.  Having someone who can fill up the space in your heart is such a blessing. Who says that God wont hear our prayers? He answered mine.  My God didn't forsaken me after all what I've been through.  For all the troubles I have from the past it pays a lot if you're patient enough to pray.  For whatever reason answered my prayers, I will forever cherish.  Bhem08
