Part of kidney disease and kidney failure that is not widely known or discussed is the toll that dialysis can take on a person’s body.
Shane has been on dialysis for 7 years now and has had several cardiac events and undergone multiple stent placements. Last week he and Sarah learned that Shane is now in need of heart bypass surgery.
Please keep Shane and his family in your thoughts and prayers. He will be undergoing this major operation very soon and every bit of support they get helps!
