Here are the CKD related blogs updated since my last report on 2/24. If you have or know of a blog that should be on the list let me know. Comments in parentheses are my reactions or opinions.
- Dialysis from the sharp end of the needle considers ESRD legislation in light of DC activity; revisits my PPS comments in light of recent reporting
- Kaply, Inc. Sudafed and Chinatown The International District go well together; will be prodded and poked, is ok with it
- The inner game of PKD pay attention to the big picture and wake up people, you would benefit from some coaching

- Precious Bodily Fluids pre-nephrectomy drug treatment can be helpful; NKF has produced materials for CKD4 education (I'd like to hear user reports/reviews)
- Pediatric Nephrology highlights a pediatric nephrology transplant article; posts one of my favorites of Vidal's poems (should have credited Anna's editing. Vidal's original format is like a scream, Vidal emailed that he liked Anna's editing, I think with Anna's editing the prose were revealed as poetry and the scream turned reflective. A bitter sweet reminiscence. I like it more each time I read it)

- My Wife Has Lupus identifies connection between symptoms and lupus
- Life on Dialysis posts pictures of what looks to be a great trip to
