I am so worried and upset right now i can hardly type this, nick is fighting for his life right now, he is having mini dialysis ,please pray with everything you have got that this works,they are doing this to save his life,oh my god i just cannot believe this is happening.
Prayers were started for Nick this morning and I'll bump up the volume tonight during my evening prayer time. Miracles happen every day and Nick can be a miracle, too. Keep the faith and know that all is well in spirit. What is invisible can be made visible. I will pray w/out ceasing.....
Huge prayers coming Nick's way!
I hope they get the stuff cleaned out of his blood and he can get on the road to better health.
{{{{hugs}}}}
Prayers from RI on the way.
Many prayers for Nick!!
Thanks again my dear friends, i have an update,nick has a 50/50 chance of the treatment working and saving some kidney function,otherwise he will need a kidney transplant, i just cannot believe how fast this disease has progressed, it say's that about it, but this is so rapid,one cannot fathom it.
Without the treatment he would have died, we don't know if it is working yet or not, but we have to continue to hope for the best possible outcome from this.
He certainly is not out of the woods yet and has a long way to go,it could go either way,so i am thinking positive thoughts and hoping for a miracle indeed.
Sadly there was no time to waste and they could not attend the fertility clinic,the treatment was needed immediately as his condition was life threatening.
Kidney donors are as rare as hen's teeth here, unless you are lucky enough to have a compatible family member, let us hope it does not come to this.
Will keep you all updated as i hear,thanks for listening, it helps to share and brings me comfort at this anxious time.
Prayers going out for Nick...
Our one custodian in school finally got his transplant last year. He ended up with pneumonia right after it and was in the hospital for at least a month, but he's back now, and seems much better.
Hope Nick will have good luck and if a transplant is needed, a donor will be available.
Nick is in my prayers!
A person can survive just fine on one kidney, so maybe some family members can decide to get tested to see if they are a match?
HUGS and more prayers for Nick!
Carole - I know he used to work with cars and chemicals. Did he wear a face mask to filter stuff out?
Just wondering if any financial help from the company would be available for all this.
Prayers still coming.
Carole, I'm so sorry to hear this.:( Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
So very sorry to hear this. The idea about testing family members is a good one. Yes, people can survive on one kidney. I hope he's blessed with a match.
Lots of getting-better-wishes coming your way, Nick!!
Carole,
You'll be in my thoughts and prayers, as always.
((((HUGS))))

Yes Nick alway's wore a face mask, there is no definite proof the disease was caused by this, as it can be viral too, but we strongly believe it was,but there is no way we can prove it.
Yes i am aware you can survive on one kidney, at this stage it has not come to that, we are still hoping the treatment will save his kidney's,as transplants are not easy to come by here unless you have a match in the family,and it is a big ask either way,besides your life span is limited on dialysis and with a transplant, this young many is only 25,so you can understand how we feel, we are still hoping for that miracle and that indeed they will be saved, have not given up hope yet.
:( So Sorry Carol about Nick.. Sending Lots of Prayers Prayers && Huggss..
