I know I know, Poetry should be on Tuesday. But this week I am a day off. Let’s get right to it then!
This poem was written at a conference we went to at Kidney Kamp after my daughter got sick. We had been trying to do Peritoneal Dialysis on her for 4 months at this point, and it was not working. It was at this camp that we finally ended all of the attempts at PD(peritoneal Dialysis) and went exclusively to Hemo Dialysis in the clinic. She had been doing Hemo during those 4 months as well.
This conference, actually more of a symposium on dealing with kidney disease had a lady come in and have the parents write about their feelings. Good for me, I wrote 2 pretty good poems that day. I wil feature the other one another week.
