Re: kidney swapping
If Kendall Wyman had given up on living an active life a year and a half ago
, who could have blamed her? The Type 1 diabetic scheduled her week around d
ialysis. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, she'd go into Glendale Adventis
t Medical Center in California for her sessions. The 32-year-old says her do
ctor would ask if she felt better afterward. "Are you insane?" she'd ask, "I
feel like I'm going to throw up."
After each cleansing of the blood, it'd take about 36 hours to recover, leav
ing Wyman with only 12 hours of feeling functional before having to undergo
treatment again. "Nobody should ever have to be on dialysis," she says. "It'
s the most heinous, horrible thing."
